tbob, Yes, Michel is a French name, but I'm Dutch... (life was not meant to be easy)
The problem is the one you stated: I am trying to jump to vi2 while inside vi1 and vice versa. now this is done by a "Back to main menu" button and then select vi2 from the main menu, but i'd like to reduce this '2 button action' to a 1 button action. the big problem is to get out of the while loop from vi1 and to go to vi2, and the other way around, vi2 -> vi1, is the same problem. You say I need buttons in each VI to run the next, like I said the buttons are not my biggest concern, I just need a function/button/pop up menu/whatever/etc. in one VI that closes the while loop,from that VI, and 'jumps' straight to the other VI. but 'the back to main menu' function has to remain, while these 2 vi's or not the only ones in the whole program. Hope this makes it a bit more clear and thx for the help!! Michel
