Creating an options menu on start-up of the VI

Hi guys. Hope you all can help me, pulling my hair out. Anyway I'll cut to the chase.

I have three separate VI's I want to use in a class soon, but I want to be able to be able to have them all under one program, and then the user is able to select which program they want to use. Once selected, the respective VI is then displayed.

It sounds really simple and I'm sure I'm overlooking something. Hope you all can direct me in the right direction. Thanks a bunch.

Hi Lord,

 

use an event structure to detect button switches. Call subVIs for each button…

 

(Or use a simple loop with some case structures…)

 

That's pretty basic. Did you go through all those free online courses offered by NI on their website?

Best regards,

I didn't, admittedly I've kind of fumbled my way through learning LabVIEW, can you direct me to the tutorial/course where I can learn what I need to do?

Thanks very much.
