DAQmx Channel Names

[Shahrukh]

I need to know if I can somehow get a list of the channels in a particular task through labview.  Is there some way to parse the Channel Constant into an array which holds all the names?

There's a "Channels" property in the DAQmx Task class of proprty nodes that will output an array of Channel names of all the channels in the Task.

I need to do the exact same thing but then the other way around. That is, I've got an array of (global) channels and want to create a task from them that I can then pass to some DAQmx vi (like start task). Is this possible?
Thanks!

Hi,

look at attached VI

The ' DAQmx Flatten Channel String.vi' function should solve your problem
