event question??

[Donkey Rubarb]

Hi,

I have written several vi's for getting measurement data out of instruments trough GPIB.
Now I am creating a sort of start page where
you can choose whitch vi you want to use.
I was thinking of a listbox in the panel with all the vi names in it,but if I try to create an event for each of the possibilities it doesn't appear in the controls under event sources.
Creating a seperate button for each vi would out of the question since the large amount of possiblities.
Any idea how to do it using events?

F_D,

Thanks for contacting National Instruments.

My first thought on this one would be to have an event trigger off a change in value of the listbox, then have a case statement inside the listbox event frame which selected a sub-VI based off of the listbox value.

Feel free to post here if this idea does not work out for you.
