Use the Advanced Storage VIs to read, write, and query data when object types or property names are determined at run time.

The VIs on this palette can return storage error codes.

Get Object Info VI
Returns information about the object you specify.
Get Property Info VI
Retrieves the properties of a data file, channel group, or channel.
Set Property VI
Defines a property for a file, channel group, or channel. Wire data to the Value input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance.
Get Property VI
Returns the value of a property for a file, channel group, or channel. You must manually select the polymorphic instance you want to use.
Merge Storage Refnums VI
Merges two arrays of storage reference numbers into one larger array of refnums. This VI works properly only if the two sets of storage refnums are from the same data file. Wire data to either of the storage refnums inputs to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance.
Create Query Expression VI
Creates a query expression to use with the Execute Query Expression VI to search for objects that meet the condition you specify. Wire data to the value input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance.
Merge Query Expressions VI
Merges two query expressions. You can use the Create Query Expression VI to create query expressions that you want to merge.
Execute Query Expression VI
Returns data objects that meet the query expression.
Refnum to ID VI
Returns the ID for a data object.
ID to Refnum
Returns a refnum for an object you specify. Wire data to the storage refnum input to determine the polymorphic instance to use.
