How would you recommend that I schedule a file-creation process to
occur at midnight each day during a long term data logging operation
in LV6.1?

I am operating a continuous system that logs data over a period of
years.  There are large amounts of data being logged and I have a
technique for naming new files when the date changes.  However, my
technique requires me to poll the date each time I go to write the
data to file.  What I really want is the ability to schedule the file
generation event to occur at a specific time of day.  My data logging
function is in a functional global structure; so I could call a "start
new day" function from another structure that could handle the desired
once-a-day event.  I could do this now with a parallel loop that polls
the date and calls the "start new day" function, but it wouldn't
really save much other than to direct the polling to a different
thread perhaps.  What is the best way to schedule such an event in
LV6.1?
