LV6 String to VISA I/O Resource

[zep]

I need to translate a string to an VISA I/O Resource. I've tried to do it by linking an I/O Resource control to a Property Node box and selecting Rsrc Name property, but it doesn't change to Write. I want to avoid using Old VISA Open, so...

Thank you...

You can write the string directly to the VISA terminal (if indicator) or local variable or Value property node.

Thank you, but what I need is something that would work on run-time.

I do this kind of operation all the time. I have included my VI that I use for this. You can look at how it's done or just use it. I found it handy to have a "translation" VI rather than throwing local variables around my diagram.
