write multicolumn listbox value from subvi whitout reference

[ctk]

Hi:

 Is it anyway to write data to multicolumn list box from subVI without pass in reference? Because if pass in reference I have to pass a lot.

Like I can use Open VI Reference together with "Set Control Value" to set a String indicator text.  But I can't find the way to use open vi reference to set the multicolumn listbox text, I only can highlist which row.

Thank.

One thing you could do:
Write the multicolumn listbox reference to an indicator in your main VI. In the SubVI read that indicator value and unflatten it into a multicolumn listbox reference. Then you'll have the reference available in the SubVI as if you had passed it.
