Build a cmd-like interface in labview

hello i have a string indicator in labview formatted as follows: 

"Select which test to execute:

1- Test01

2-Test02

3-Test03"

 

and from a string control i pick which test to run by typing in the index (1,2,3). Once i do that i need the string indicator to be replaced with a series of subtests. Like for example, lets say i pick test 01. the indicator would now say something like:

 

"Test 01 subtests

1-Subtest 1.1

2-Subtest 1.2

3-Subtest 1.3"

 

by choosing an index here, another menu appears on the indicator

 

how can i do that? i tought of using a series of case structures but, given the amount of sub-menus i have, the code would become bloated with case structures. is therer an easy way to build an interface like this?

 

thank you

Have you considered a tree control?
