Whenever i try to reopen the saved plot on the XY graph, i only have the data values instead of the plot

I am not sure I understand your question, so if I am off the mark let me know and we will work on getting you the solution.

If you have a plot with a bunch of data displayed on it and you want LabVIEW to shows those values the next time you open the VI, then you will need to save the data as default. To do this for a single control or indicator right click on it and select Data Operations>>Make Current Values Default.

If you want to save all the values on the front panel, then you can select Operate>>Make Current Values Default.

After you have amde the values default, whenever you re-open the VI it will start with those values.

you have to connect a vi of write to file and set the extention .txt and then you can see the data inside the file.
