Set current values default in Standalone executable

[ket]

Whenever we create an executable file for example, abcd.exe from abcd.vi that can be run on a computer having the runtime engine of the corresponding labview version, it has certain default data control set at the time of creating the .exe file. I propose that there be an option to set the values default after creating the executable file.

From the comments posted in the link Aristos pointed to it looks like this can not really be done - it could require a recompile and definitely a save of the vi. And this is not something that can be done in the runtime engine.

But there are solutions involving saving the control values to files. See this link for a few different methods. I believe that OpenG has vis for doing just that.
