Read a list of shared variables remotely

[Mattjk]

I asked this question yesterday and I will try again today.  How can I read into my LV program a list of available shared variables which reside on another PC?  This morning I realized that if I go into the distributed system manager, I find a list of all PCs on the network as well as all shared variables on each PC.  Is there any way to access the distributed system manager's list programmatically?  I really need to dynamically read a list of shared variables remotely.

Thanks

Hi Matt,

This Community Example looks like it might be what you're trying to do (or something similar). If you have the DSC Module, you could also try using the Get Shared Variable List VI. Hopefully those are helpful for you.

How about this...

Can you please post this code.  I can't seem to find the "PSP Variable Engine" property node.

Thanks

Matt

Dude - that is a vi snippet!  Just save to desktop and then drag to diagram.

I can't drag the snippet because I am using Labview 2009

I still can't use it with LV 2009
