functions don't run when error in

  1. Default functions don't run when error in

    I've encountered several problems where functions or express VIs don't run when there is an error in.  Basically, if the error line has an error, the VI or function is bypassed without doing anything.  When writing to a TDM file, an error was generated and then the close storage didn't execute and thus any other open of that same file doesn't work.  I also put a user defined error on the line when a measurement was out of tolerance.  This caused all subsequent functions or VIs to not execute even though I wanted them to.  The best way to ensure proper order of execution is the error signal, but with this little feature, I have to put in a lot of cumbersome sequences and not pass the error to each VI or function. 
     
    What's the deal with functions not executing and is there a way I can make them without clearing the error?

  2. Default Re: functions don't run when error in

    I did understand "hard" and used "soft" in that same vein.  I appreciate the suggestion for the warning convention. 
    note, the TDM issue was just an example.  My issue is much more global than this one subVI.  I'll see if I can implement more of a warning structure rather than set a error.  I'm not sure what "imho" means but I'm pretty sure it's not what it sounds like
    Thanks.
