little green arrows on Sub VI's

[Bummerhunter]

The sub VI works great when i'm running it on its own but when it is run as a sub VI a little green arrow shows up and the program stops running but i get no error codes

Do you have execution highlighting or breakpoints turned on?

When you have Execution Highlighting (the lightbulb) turned on, the green arrow is shown on a sub-vi while it is executing just to show what's going on. Your program is probably not running because it is stuck in the sub-vi for some reason and can't exit back to the main applicaiton.

Open the sub-vi and look at the diagram while running with highlighting turned on there. You should be able to track the problem down.

Ok i found the answer thanks for all your help it turns out to be the while loop in it
