Since you don't want global variables, you should learn about a type of global variable called "functional global". Basically, it's using a VI with a while loop that runs only once that has an uninitialized shift register. Because the shift register is uninitialized it keeps the data in it from the last time the VI was run and so the data can be accessed from different location. search the site for "functional globals".
You can use the data you pass to create a dynamic user event (in the Application Control>>Events pallete) or use the Value(signaling) property to generate a value change event.
If you don't want to use data transfer at all, you can use the reference to the original VI with a property node, to get the "panel" property which is a reference to the front panel which you can use to get an array of references for all the controls on the front panel of MyVItwo and you can choose one of those and use the Value(signaling) property on that one.
