I want to provide a system model to others with a feature that pops a disclaimer note and unless user accepts it, the model would not open. Would like to know how this can be done in VisSim model? Thanks,

    Vinayak, Enclose the entire diagram int a single compound that contains the disclaimer as it's name. It can say at the end, 'right click on this block to accept these terms and run this model, or chose file/close if you do not accept these terms'. Note you can password protect portions you don't want exposed to the end user. Pete

    Vinayak,

    Another way that you can achieve this is by using the error block as in the attached diagram.

    You will be asked at the start of the first simulation run to accept the disclaimer conditions or the simulation will be stopped. The disclaimer can otherwise be permanently accepted by checking the check box in the compound block dialog constant. Anthony
