Inherits from VI Methods.
Exports the following strings about VI and front panel objects to a tagged text file: VI name and description, object caption labels, panel free labels, default data (string, table, path, and array default data), and private data (list box item names, table row and column headers, graph plot names, graph cursor names, and tab control page captions). This performs similarly to the project menu item. Export VI Strings also contain parameters.
The following table lists the parameters for this method.
