Disable active windows display IMAQ

How can I disable the display of IMAQ active window display ??

 

I use the program IC_Grab_IMAQ.vi to get a picture from the USB camera and IMAQ_Write_File_2 to write it as JPEG. I acquire images for M x N points. So Every time I execute my program I get M x N pop ups of this active window.

Hi Abikutn, 

 

It looks like the function you are using (IC_Grab_IMAQ.vi) calls a 3rd party .dll, and is not a standard National Instruments function. The library it calls is LabVIEW Extension2.dll. If this is what you are using to operate the camera, you should find who wrote this library and see if they have a way to minimize or disable the window.
