I am using an old dos program which need few minutes to finish and i want to go to the next sequence only when this program is done. Is there a way to know when is it done ?
Run the DOS program from a batch file and have the batch file do something that will signal your LV program.

What you can try is to download lvwutil32.llb which is a set of Windows API functions from here. There is a VI in there called System Exec+. Unlike the shipping version, this one has an option to wait until the called application stops running.
