Computer freeze when pressing OK on a pop up dialog

[bjbdts]

Hi,

I have a dialog.vi used as a subvi. It will pop up when runing a program. This dialog.vi will allow me to input information such as sample no., sampling rate, etc

The dialog.vi can run itself no problem. The problem arises when I use it as a subvi in a main program. When I run the program, the dialog box will pop up as expected, but after I enter all the information and click on the OK button, the cpu usage rose to 100%, and the program just freeze there. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

BJ,

My guess is the problem lies in whatever executes immediately after you press the ok button not the popup itself.  Take a look at that.  Post your vi if you can or explain what your vi SHOULD do after you press ok.

Hi

looks like your dialog VI has a while loop which is not stopping and running at maximum iteration rate

Try putting a delay for the dialog VI's iterations

If not post ur VI and we can sugest better
