Control Value:Set [Variant] Method - how can i use this with strict type definitions?

[zskillz]

I want to pass default values to a strict type definition from a mainVI to a subVI, but I'm not allowed to use the "Control Value:Set [Variant] Method" invoke node to do it.  How else can I achieve this?
thanks,
Z

Hi Z,

If you use strict type defintion references you can use Call by reference Node. Depending on the connector pane for the subvi which is referenced you just wire your data to the corresponding terminals. I attach an easy example which dynamically opens and writes to an arbitary number of a template.

Hope it helps

Hi Pelle,
    Thanks for your reponse.  I'm sorry for getting back so slowly.  I'd like to view your example, but I've only got labview 8.  can you save it in a previousw version.

Hi Z,

Now the files should be version 8.0.

Hope it helps,
