Hello, I am trying to get the reference of a control in a vi loaded in a subpanel. Usually I would get the reference of the vi and from that the reference to the control I want. However I cannot find a way to get the ref to the vi loaded from the subpanel methods. Obviously I know that I can save the reference to the subpanel-vi in the vi holding the subpanel, and go along with it. However I would prefer to access the ref directly from the subpanel methods/properties so that I dont have to write the code to keep track of what I am loading or unloading in the subpanel especially because I am having clones vi loaded in. Is there anyway to do it? Thanks in advance for any help.

Mike, thanks for the reply, I am missing where the InsertedVI property is (in the LV11 version I can't find it) and that's the whole (or main) problem that sparked this all.... ...it was fun anyway to get a taste on the xcontrol potential which I hope will be more developed in the future lv version... ..take care and if you don't have any thing else to add on, you can consider the problem answered. Best Regards,

Giovanni
