How to make a 2D array global?

I have a small 2D array(up to 8 rows, up to 10 columns) of strings that I want to make global.  It doesn't appear that LabView allows creating global 2D arrays.  Is that correct?  What is the best way to implement this?

That is news to me.

 

Did you bother to try Google? http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361H-01/lvhowto/creating_global_variables/

Wow, I guess that was a gap in my LabView knowledgeSmiley Embarassed.  I've always used the single process shared variable instead of a global.

I wouldn't worry about.  Everyone has knowledge gaps.  That's why they come to the help forums.  You no longer have the gap, right?  🙂
