Using the invoke node VI Strings.Import

[CyGa]

I'm achieving a program to translate the captions which are on the front panels of existing programs.

 I use the invoke node VI String.Export to create a file containing the differents properties of the front panel objects of the target VI.

 I modify the fields <CONTROL ID .... name="xxxxx"> to change the captions and then i use the invoke node VI Strings.import to uptade the target VI.

Then i use the invoke node VI Save.Instrument to save the modifications.

The problem is that the Log File created by the invoke node VI Strings.import indicates me :

############################################
Parsing error while importing strings
 to traduction_1.0.vi
 from C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\work\Labview\Exos\traduction\Vi_import.victl

############################################
Error occurred while parsing for String object. Control name does not match.

Which means that it can't change the captions name.

Do i badly use the invoke nodes ? Do i have to use an other function?

Apparently you are changing the control label, not the caption. If you created a caption for the control, the caption value should appear in the <PARTS> body, nested into the <CONTROL ...> tag.
You can't change control labels this way. Labels are used to identify the control to which you are applying changes. Changing the label would cause the control not being found.

It seems that you are right.
