LabVIEW
SUB-VI showing the options made in the MAIN-VI.
Solved!
I dunno if its possible to make, but in my main-VI, the user has to choose some values and some text forms to fill, and i want a sub-vi to show those options made, with a confirmation button that will lead to another VI. And a cancel button to return to the Main-VI. If possible, this sub-VI should appear in a pop-up window.
Thanks in advance.

Everything is possible!
This is all very basic. What have you tried so far? Where did you get stuck?
I'm new with LabView, and yes, i'm learning that it has almost no limitations.
Atm i'm still finishing the validation parameters, so i haven't tried any sub-vi to show in a pop-up the result of choices made by the user in the main-vi.
Any help or example is welcome, most of my short knowledge in LabView, is due to the little example VI's that i found here.
Thanks in advance.

What is your LabVIEW version?
I don't quite understand the mechanics you want. So the user enters text in the main VI. After that, there should be a popup to confirm or cancel the entry. What should happen if the user cancels (e.g. clear the original entry or go back to the original entry for further editing). Is the user supposed to be allowed to make changes and corrections to the entry on the popup itself?
To make a subVI into a popup, go to vi properties and choose style "window appearance...dialog".
I'm using LabView 8.5 atm, but i will switch to 8.6 as soon as it arrives. Anyway, my idea is: in the 1st VI, the user has to fill several forms, most of them numeric, and it will show the errors and allow the user to switch his options before going to the next sub-vi. Which will be that sub-vi i'm asking, and that, will only show the options the user has made, plus some other results based on formulas. On this VI, the user can only click "proceed" and that will lead to another VI with graphs etc, or to click "cancel" and to return to the main VI, giving a chance for the user to make some changes.
I hope that you got my point, i can send you the VI, but only if you pm me with your mail.
Thanks once more.

Yes it does, well, at least partially. Because i need to edit the sub-vi, cause on the sub-VI it will be showing the choices the user has made plus some other results made with formulas. And if the user is not satisfied with the results, he can validate some new 1s on that VI. And only after, the program will go to another VI, with graphs and values.
1st VI - user is able to choose and define the global parameters of the experience.
2nd VI - that parameters are shown with some other result values based on formulas; in this VI user can edit the parameters if he is not satisfied with the result values from formulas.
3rd VI - will show some graphs based on the global parameters and on the formulas.
1st VI <-> 2nd VI -> 3rd VI -> 1st VI (this is how i intend to make the navigation on the program possible.)
Here it goes again. Still i haven't figure out how can i show in the sub-vi the global parameters and be able to edit them. Another question is, is there anyway to highlight the wrong value, if it is out of range? I know how to highlight the cluster, but my final cluster has many values and strings...which go all highlighted if 1 is wrong.
