How can I transmit to a subvi a cluster containing elements in a listbox

[tlap]

I have a cluster containing listboxes. when i transmit the cluster in a subvi I loose the elements in the listboxes (thats logic because a listbox return a number). Is it possible to use the properties of the refnum in order to recover the elements in the listboxes
thanks

Hi,
To me you've got 2 choices :

1) Use the property node "Element names" of your listboxes and transmit them into your subVI if you only need that property in your subVI.

2) Use references of your listboxes and transmit them into your subvi. This method enables you to access to all the properties and methods of the listboxes.

Hope this helps !
