Did you mean: 

Keep message box open while going to next step.

  I have two steps under the MainSequence in Teststand, the first is "message Popup" by inserting a "message popup" step type, I expect to see that: when the step of "message popup" is executed, I don't need to click the "OK" button and execution will automatically go to next step while keeping dialog open.
  I know I can fulfill the same function by building an exe message popup file and insert a "Call Executable" step types, however, I would like to see an easier way. 
Thanks!

Hey Jacky,
 
The best way to accomplish this behavior is to put your MessagePopup in a subsequence and then call that subsequence in a new thread.  This will allow your other steps to continue as neccessary.  Let me know how it goes.
