The whisper game was based on unintentional morphing, thats not the case here... >As to solving the challenge... the obvious (to me) >solution is to catch the exception and add the appropriate >VI server code to the offending diagram. I would posit two choices, the VIServer code (more flexible, costs realestate) the "General Recursion Call (Variant).vi" compact... >But I would bet a beer that as soon as someone does >this, 7.2 will support recursion directly! :P Thats a fools bet, which I won't take. Did you know that PXI is a beer induced product? Legend has it that the initial conversation that kicked off the project came about on the roof of NI's HQ over a few beers at some sort of company micro-event. Never underestimate the creative potential of beer. At the Astronomical Telescopes conference in Hawaii two years ago, there was a paper/discussion on network and group/collaboration tools. Amoung this staid group of scientists, PhDs and general geniuses it was unanimously agreed by acclaimation that the number one engineering and scientific collaboration tool is ... yup, beer... On second thought, George, I'll take that bet Prost & salud! Mike (sorry if this swerved off-topic, lets get back to code, beer later) *********************************** Michael C.
