DATA WHEN IS THE SOFTWARE IS RUNNING

[LaxTe]

Here is what i want, when i run the main.vi i want the data to be there in the background in data.vi (without pressing the data.vi button), even if i open the data.vi file from background (please referto the images at top)

So you want to read some data file at the very beginning of your main.vi to fill the "data to be here"!?

Did you implement your requirement in some code?

(Or do you need just some "fixed" default data? Did you set those default values in your controls?)

actually i want to display the data i am having in data.vi in main.vi display but when i run the main.vi the data.vi's data is not available until and unless i  press the data.vi button

So you implemented my suggestion from message #16 and still you cannot show the "data.vi's data" in main.vi?

Unfortunately there is no new code supplied by you since message #16…

The problem witth "data.vi" is that it has a open front panel and a foreground function. 

And it has an while loop that runs until a button is pressed.

If you want to run your data.vi in parallel to you main.vi, the you need to start you data.vi asynchron from the main.vi. 

Look at the examples in LabVIEW on "Start Asynchronous Call".
