Can Fmt make computer frozen?

[howdy]

Hello,

I am using a while loop in which Fmt (&data, "%f<%s", string) is called to convert a string into double type data. I found 1 out 20 times my computer will freeze and can not respond any input even "terminate excution".

Do anyone have any idea or experience about this? How can I solve this problem? Thanks.

Are you sure this happens when this function is called? This is very strange behavior and I can find no other cases of this occuring. You may want to try repairing your installation of CVI and if this does not work, you may want to look at your Windows installation, as something else may be going on since this is a very simple function and this does not occur all the time. You could have something wrong with the OS (virus, worm, adware, corrupt installation, etc) and this would cause something like this to occur.
