Wait for Keyboard Stroke before continuing For Loop

[v_pat]

Hello Everyone:

Was wondering if anyone knows how to make a For Loop wait until any key on the keyboard is pressed before running the next step in the loop.

I'm using LabVIEW 6.0...any suggestions or sample VI's appreciated!

Thanks

Since you're using 6, you won't have events, but try using the GetKeyboardState function from user32.dll inside a while loop which is inside the for loop. If you're only monitoring a specific key, you can use GetKeyState, which is simpler. Documentation for both can be found in the MSDN. If you don't want that, search google for LV Toolbox. I believe it has this as a VI.
