saving and restoring,default controls values(LV7)

I need to get a general way to save and restore, default controls values ( and eventually indicators) from UI panel of many VIs. Writing to different *.ini, *.cfg (or something else) files. I�m working in LV 7
Some VI, used as configuration panel, have a lots of arrays of arrays, arrays of clusters, tables, Booleans or numeric arrays and so on. Write a particular solution for every application is very time consuming, and tedious.
I �m trying, unsuccessfully, working with examples like:
· SavingVIstates_en.llb (Save and Restore VI States Using a Configuration File)
· SavingVIstates.vi
· (save)Write Configuration Settings File.llb
· PanelConfig.llb
· Remembering Control Values
Many solutions work only with s
imple controls, working like a *ini Windows files .
Dou you know some solution or idea?
Regards
Al

If you just need to save the values there are variant based tools for this included in the OpenG toolkit, you can find it on www.openg.org.

If you want to save properties as well have a look at the Property Saver Toolkit at:
