Hi Amit,

Go to the find function (Ctrl+f), choose Objects radio button, Select object Functions->Structures->Local Variable, choose your vi as search scope and click Find.

Thanks for the reply,

What i really require is that if it is possible for me to get the list of all the Local variables with their names

and save it into a txt file as we do while looking at the Vi metrics in profile tab?

Regards

Amit

If you have that many Locals that you need a list, you are probably abusing their use.  When overused, Local Variables are notorious for causing race conditions, which leads to unexpected results when executing the code.

If you show us a typical example of your code, we may suggest improvements to avoid Locals.
