Jim, I already modified my version to list [Cluster] and Array[] types. I am working on the registering of recognized (typedef) clusters, and also sending data to a central table display via queue. I will download the latest version you mentioned below and add these mods, then I'll be happy to send you the updates. Mike -----Original Message----- From: ope...@li... [mailto:ope...@li...]On Behalf Of Jim Kring Sent: Saturday, October 25, 2003 7:33 PM To: ope...@li... Subject: RE: [lvdata] Universal Probe Thanks for the feedback, Mike. By the way, I have just (this morning) updated the Universal Probe page with a new version that fixes a problem that prevented it from working with TypeDefs. In case you didn't know... you can subscribe to email updates when new versions of this page are committed. If you are logged in, you can click on the eye icon in the upper right corner of a page to watch (monitor) that page and automatically receive email updates when it changes. In general, I am not going to be evolving the Universal Probe as a "real" project, but I might add features from time to time, especially if others send me improvements (hint, hint ;-).

Its input type is a Variant, and it dynamically parses the data. The "Using the Universal Probe" section, below, on how to use the Universal Probe to probe anything and everything. There downloadable tool is packaged for easy installation into your Custom Probes directory ("<My Documents>\LabVIEW Data\Probes"). This tool uses a VI called "Populate Tree Control with Variant Data.vi" which uses a recursion into Variant technique based on the "OpenG Flatten to XML.vi" and other lvdata examples. Please take a look and please feel free to comment.
