Changing the Output Rate of a DAQ-assistant in the FrontPanel

Hi, first I want to thank you alot for helping me with my last problem! Well a new one has occured:
If I want to put out a signal with a higher frequency i have to increase the samples/s of the function generator to make the signal look nicer. (well that's clear)
In order to do this (increasing the samples per sec of the generator) I have to increase the Output Rate of the DAQ for my Analog-Output-Task. (otherwise wrong signal frequency, which is also clear). Well, I can change the configuration of the DAQ-assistant in the Block-Diagram (because it is placed there).
Is it somehow possible to change the Output Rate (or the configuration in general) in the Front Panel? (with a property node maybe?)
Thanx

Hi Basher,
configure your Express VI, than make a rightclick on it and chosse "Open Frontpanel" from contextmenu. After choose convert from message box you will see the frontpanel of your Express VI. Change to blockdiagram. There should be a VI called Timing.vi. This has a entry named rate which is connected to a constant. Make e rightclick on this constant and choose "change to control" from context menu. Now you have to go backto frontpanel. On the right sight there is the icon of your VI, make a richtclick on it and choose "Show Connector". Connect an empty field of it to your control and save all. In your Main.VI Express.VI has changed to a SubVI with an additional entry.
Hope this will help you.
