Your subVI is running.  You just have no way to stop it!

When the VI starts, it takes the inputs going into it.  A, B, and Stop which is probably unpressed and False whent he main VI starts.  So the subVI has a false on its stop terminal.  There is no way to stop the subVI.  You basically want to take the loop out of the subVI.

You will need to learn how dataflow works in LabVIEW.  It seems like you are a new user, so I would recommend looking at the online LabVIEW tutorials, first.

Okay.  I have seen the unexpected message error.  I was trying to reply to this message http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&view=by_date_ascending&message.id=354225#M354225

I edited the message once.  No problem.  I tried to edit a second time,  it gave me the unexpected message error.  I tried again.  I noticed the "Message edited by" message from my first message was not present.  I tried to edit and submit it.  Again the unexpected error.

I went to this forum and created a message about it.  It submitted okay.  I tried to edit this message (the one right before this).  I wound up putting the message from the other board in here instead (this wasn't a cut and paste problem on my part, it basically cross linked my message to edit with the other board.)  I am now writing this message okay to explain the weird message in the post before this one.

I tried to edit this message for the first time.  The correct message came up.  But when I tried to submit, I got this error (attached)

I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees strange behavior on this forum...

I've been tracking reports of the unexpected error message so that we can possibly indentify a pattern.  I'm adding this to my problem report.

Thanks,

Laura,

Let me add another to your list.  I posted twice this morning no problem with Safari.  Then later I attempted to reply to my own thread and attempted to attach two VIs.  Unexpected error!  Then I could no longer post at all with Safari with or without attachments.  Even cutting my post down to a single letter did not let me "preview" the message, much less post it.

Switched to FIrefox and was able to post. 

Seems that attempting attachments permanently confuses the Safari/Lithium connection.

Safari 3.1.2 / Mac OS X 10.5.4

Thanks Scott!

The more the merrier (well, at least to establish a root cause)!

 My own experience is not so dramatic... I'm not able to attach vis, but other files (.png, .zip) are sent without trouble.

Glad to see I'm not the only one to have problems with Apple/Lithium... 😄

Public service announcement for those suffering from the "fight with the editor issue".

1) Expand your edit window to fill your screen once and the editor will remeber the size for all future replies.

2) Keep your replies to less thatn the size of your screen.

As long as the whole message is viewable the editor does not seem to jump around.

Ben

[Ray.R]

Thanks Ben..

I'll try that.

I got an even more weird editor window.  Have a look at the attached image.
