Open Multiple Variable Editor in VI

[krue_mt]

Hi folks,

is there any way to open the Multiple Variable Editor programmatically in a VI?

ATM i'm migrating a measurement logging system from LabVIEW 7 to LabVIEW 2010 which means i'm mostly rewriting the code for use with shared variables. It would be useful if the measurement engineers could reconfigre - e.g. rescale or smthg - variables when the software is already running as it was somehow possible with the Tag Configuration Editor, and instead of writing these menus again i'd like to pop up LabVIEWs MVE or the builtin properties page of a shared variable.

Hints, useful links or any other help welcomed!

The further 2 Links contain additional information to your issue:

save to library VI:

how do i programmatically change the data binding source for shared variables:
