How can I convert a DAQ Channel Name into a string?

How can I convert a DAQ Channel Name into a string?

[AVR]

In LabVIEW version 6.1, just wire to a DAQ Channel name control as if it were a string control. For a simple test (I know, I just tried it), wire a DAQ Channel Control to a string indicator. Run the VI. The DAQ Channel Name selected in the control window will be displayed in the string indicator.

So, there is really no conversion necessary...the DAQ Channel Names behave like string controls in the block diagram.

Hello;

You don't really need to convert that.
In case you need to use the DAQ channel, on some other part of your VI, as a string variable, you can simply wire a String control/constant to be the DAQ channel.

That way you won't need any convertion.
Hope this helps.
