Add a save file method to the configuration files object.

Currently, the configuration file object only has access to save a file when you close the object.  I'd like to be able to save the file at any point in time and keep the object open.

I wonder why is it required to close the file object when you save it???

The current configuration save file vi should be changed to employ the above functionality.

I can only see issues with keeping it as is.

I've also run into this issue before - Great idea Mike!!!!

I have also run into this problem.  This needs fixed.

meanwhile, "Close Config Data" isn't password protected, so i think you can create a copy of it and modify it so it does only the saving and not the closing (remove Release Queue)

I in fact have my own function that does this, but in 2009 NI decided to put this into a library and make all of the subvi's to the object PRIVATE.  This means I can't simply copy and modify - I have to copy all of the subvi contents as well.  That is in fact what I did, but all I really need is this save function and I could get rid of about 8 copied VIs in my library.

If your interested in some history, this exact topic was discussed here.  I started this conversation (under my alias mikema111) because of this VI I'm requesting.
