Teststand problem when try to close a modified seq file.

[jacky Wang]

  I have a problem when using Teststand. My seq file consists several custom step types, which call external DLL/VIs. The problem is every time when I modified this seq file and tried to close it without save it, Teststand will always popup a warning dialog "Unable to discard seq file, because it is in use", please see below. Hope somebody here could give me some suggestions on it and tell me how to resolve this problem.

Thanks!

Hi Jacky,

How does MT2OU2_PXI_02.AB.SEQ relate to the open sequence file or to your custom step type or to your process model and why should it be running?

Hi Ray

  Attached is the structure I used in Teststand. Here I want to describe my problem once again:

Case1: if I open a seq file and then close it, there will be OK

Case2, if I open a seq file and insert some custom step types, then close it, it will be OK.

Case2: if I open a seq file and run it, then try to close it, but without any chang, there will popup a dialog"unable to discard this seq file,because it is in use...."

Thanks!

Sounds to me like one or more of the DLLs/VIs isn't stopping properly and is therefore still loaded and running when you try to close the sequence.

Just a thought
