is it possible to communicate bi-directionally between two VIs on separate computers on a LAN?

I would like to have the same labview VI on 2 different computers, A and B.
If a control on A is manipulated - I want all appropriate indicators and controls on A and B to reflect that change. Basically I would like A and B to be reflections of each other so that I can work at either computer w/o having to manually update anything.

Is this possible w/ labview? Could I do this w/ datasockets?

I don't know about datasockets (i'm still in LV 5) but you can do this using VI server, or with a little more work with TCP/IP. You just need to open a vi reference to each vi from another, and get control values from one to another.
Hope this helps
