Hi
There are different ways to solve your problem, depending on the functionality you want to program.
One way could be:
Use a producer/consumer-pattern. In the event-structure, add the value changed-event of the tab-control. Produce a queue-entry in this event-case.
In the according consumer-case you can place your password sub-vi.
You also could place the password sub-vi in the event-case, but, in this case, be aware that all other events are blocked, as long as your password sub-vi is running.
Hope this helps.
