Programmatically altering strings to be evaluated in a Formula Node?

[Peter T]

Hello,

I want the user of my program to enter an expression in a string control
that is a function of two variables. I want to be able to evaluate this
string as if it were in a formula node.

Is there a way of programmatically altering strings to be evaluated in a
Formula Node?

Thanks,

Peter

I found 'Eval Formula Node.vi'. That does just what I was looking for.

Thanks

Peter
