[Urgent] LabVIEW Locked?! Help!!!!!

[Vss]

Hello everyone,

I am currently working on a project related to nanomotion stage using LabVIEW 6.1. I met a problem in using the Labview and it is extremely urgent (I have to make it work in 24hrs). I've never used LabVIEW 6.1 before, and it is really weird. The problem now is: I am not able to wire blocks and delete blocks in the block diagram. Though now I can right-click and then drag blocks from the function panel into the diagram, the blocks have no terminals, and there's no way for me to select the block I just draged in, and I cannot wire the blocks or delete them as well. If anybody know how to solve this problem, please let me know!!!! I really appreciate it!!!

Thank you for your help!!!

Regards,

Xiaofei

Can you change the tool you're using (space bar, tab, SHIFT+right mouse click)?

Uninstall and reinstall Labview, It will takes 20 mins depending of your computer and which toolkit and have addons you need...  Only install what you need for your 24 hrs rush...All default parameter will be installed, And if the problem appears again, be sure that it is not provinding from Labview... In that cases, I would change my computer....

Note that I'd never use LV 6.1 ... I begin With LV 7.0, 7.1, 8.0 8.2 and now 8.5 ...
So maybe this is a feature that I can't know... Just consider it before uninstall...

Hope you finnish in time...

While a reinstall may be the ultimate solution, it may take considerably more than 20 mins.  Does this problem occur if you create a new vi and try and edit it? What O/S, how much memory and disk space do you have? I haven't touched 6.x in a number of years and don't have it installed, at the moment, on anything available.

Hi Thank you all so much! It's solved!

The way is simply shift+right click, and then change the type of tool.

I am really grateful to your help!
