Fill 2D Control from text or excel

Since controls only work in one direction, how can I fill them from a file? I want the option to change the data after it's loaded in so an indicator won't work..

Create a local variable of that control and set the mode so you can write to it.

 

I would recommend looking at the online LabVIEW tutorials

Well, two ways (each with their own drawbacks) are to use a Local Variable or to use the Value Property, set to Write.
