Calling a VI from another VI


Recommended Posts

hello,

I'm wondering if anyone can explain how to call an external VI from another VI. I'm wanting to press a "Start" button on one vi and once the start button is pressed I want another VI to be called that actually executes the start function. I don't think this should be very hard to do but I've tried looking and haven't seen anything yet.

Thanks

Chad

hi, CK

I you could use the Event structure to complete it

1. create event structure and add event case for Start Control

2. place your VI on this case and select "run when opened"

3 you could also set you sub vi as a dialog

that is it
