From my days as a C programmer (shudder) I have to say I do miss the
#define. I realize LabVIEW cannot really have an exactly analogous feature
because the scope of .vi is too different from the scope of .c, but there
must be some way to get the same functionality. I figure a global might be
the ticket here, but I thought I would ping you guys and see if anyone had
something more clever or if there were any gotchas to using a global. I
would type my #define values into the global, make current values default,
and then read from the global. This particular global would never get
written to programmatically.

If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down?
We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason. --Jack Handy
