How to retrieve a list of available physical channel names in LabVIEW/NIDAQmx

How to extract a list of available physical channel names into a labVIEW 7.0 variable (like a string array) using NIDAQmx?

NIDAQmx offers a front panel control for selecting physical channels, which can be added to virtual channels and tasks. The front panel control doesn't have an 'items' property and none of the NIDAQmx VIs or property nodes appear to offer a list of channels for a particular IO board.

The 'DAQmx System' property node gives a DevNames list of available devices but the 'DAQmx Device' node has no info on the actual channels that the device can support.
