how do I access MAX virtual channels from VB

Installed PXI-6052E and MXI-3 with PXI-1011 chassis.
module 1 = scxi-1102b
module 2 = Scxi-1102b
module 3 = scxi-1126
wandering if I can access(or just read)those virtual channes continuously or one shot at a time(so I may use timer in vb to constantly acquire data). Is it possibel to acquire MAX virtual channels(includes voltage, current, temperature and maybe frequency) under VB?

You can only use virtual channels with the ActiveX controls in VB, because the ni-daq dll function calls do not support them. Therefore, if you open one of the Measurement Studio shipping examples like C:\Program Files\National Instruments\MeasurementStudio\VB\Samples\DAQ\Analog Input\Continuous Acquisition\ you can change the channel from 1 to some thing like myTempChan or any virtual channel that you may have.

I hope this helps.
