How to take field close through a case loop?

Hi, having a bit of trouble wiring a close field point vi. i need it to pass through a case loop but all i get is tunnels on the edge. Basically what the program does is when i press the button in the outer loop the loop inside will start. And when the button is pressed the loop will stop by the case loop. So basically if i can get the close fp vi on the outside or something like that the program should stop.(This program is also apart of a much larger, so thats why i need it to start and stop when i tell it to).

Any help greatfully recieved, stu

Hi Jeff, would use your modification, but only using 6.02. But thinking on its so obvious why its tunneling. No connection along the false loop. But how can u get a connection if the read field point is within the loop? I've tried local variables they seem to be ok. Any comments greatly appreciated.

Thanks Stuart

Hi Stu,
On your block diagram, double click the Create Tag or Read, Sub-VI. If you examine the block diagram of either, you will see that the Refnum is passed through. This can be confirmed by probing the Refnum out of the FP Open Sub-VI and the Refnum In of the FP Close Sub-VI. I have attached Loop2 in version 6.0 format.
