Manually change data in a table

I am running a test and having the data collected from sensors displayed in a table. After the test is complete I want to allow the user the capability to over ride data in the cells they select in the table. Has anyone been able to, or is it possible to, leave the table "editable" while the vi is running?

Sure it's possible. Your table has to be a control so when you write data to it, use a local variable or property node.

I'm using the Build Table express vi to create the table. So the Table is an indicator. The wire breaks if I change the table to a control.

I've tried a few things with the property node with no success. Maybe I'm using, or not using the property node correctly. I'm still green to Labview

Look at the attached picture. You have to disconnect your table from the express VI and instead wire up the local variable. Putting the table as a control in a while loop after it's been written to will then allow a user to modify the contents.
