What is the best way to write to a control? Can this be done without the use of a property node?

generally writing to a control should only happen when setting up a screen or inititlaizing a display, in which case usinga local is acceptable provided you are control when it is occuring using proper data flow techniques.

Either property nodes or local variables.
However, be careful you are not creating any race conditions by doing so.
Generally, these options can avoided all together depending on your application (via shift register or something similar)

using a local variable is faster in execution than a property node. and use a control reference to write to a control in a VI from another -
