Get All Control Values [Variant] Method for Global Vars

[maximint]

Hello,

to get all the data of controls use in a VI, the methode "Get All Control Values [Variant]" can be used fine.
Is anything else available for gloabl variables which are use by this VI?

Thanks.

While I never tried it, I think that using this method on the global vi (i.e. the vi that hosts the global variables) should do the trick.

Yes, I tried to link this methode to the vi which contains the global vars but got the error message
"you cannot make a strict vi refernce to a global VIs.

Any other idea?

Thanks, Thomas.

I created the reference using Open VI Reference (Application Control palette) and wiring the "vi path" input. It worked. If the vi is already in memory, it is not necessary to specify the full vi path. Close the reference afterwards.
