Building an array from values in two structures.........

 

Hi, 

I am working on an application that loads one of several VIs into the subpanel control on the main window. Each VI displays a certain part of the main system

The user  types the name of the VI and by presses return or enter(Num Pad) key . Any VI that is loaded has its ID saved in an array. This to allow

the user to move back and forth through displays loaded so far in a session. By using shift registers the array builds fine. 

 

 Some of the newer VIs have butons that open a detailed diagram etc for a particular component. This is straightforward using an even structure however the

IDs of these 'subdiagrams' loaded through a mouse event also need to be saved in the same array. Essentially I am trying to combine VI   IDs from a case structure (key press) and an event structure handling mouse events.

 

Any suggestions would be welcome

Store your vi names in a Action Engine

Ben's famous Action Engine Nugget is always a good read. http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Community-Nugget-4-08-2007-Action-Engines/m-p/503801
