VIs such as Excel functions (NI_Excel.lvclass:Excel......) can't be modified and saved. I am suggesting to add the Save As feature so one could build more functions since LabView functions are limited.
Unfortunately, adding Save As would be the same as removing the licensing from our toolkit, so I doubt this will happen. Unfortunately, I don't know of any way to give you a modifiable copy that is still signed by NI such that your copy could only be used by folks who had license for the toolkit.
Save As would be nice. since you have licensing issues, try adding more functionality to the class. for example the "excel get data" is limited to only one cell at a time. why cant you get a whole row or column or even a copy and paste vi would be nice. Since its password protected you cant build your own version with the modifications you need to do your task. for example I tried to build a version for myself that will select a whole row from a worksheet and I am not able to use the unbundle on the the lvclass wire for the "report chain" because it is not allowed. why not if I build my own vi I should be able to unbundle a class wire so I can use the data I need to out of it dont you think. Here is what Im talking about.
So if anyone has an idea on how to build your own vi to manipulate excel data let me know it would be greatly appriciated. I was gonna try to plugin a lvclass vi to see if i can steal the unbundled data from it but that just sounds like a very inefficient way of doing it.
