X Control Caller VI Ref

[Anish]

I would like to know Is there a way to get the reference of the VI in which the Xcontrol is placed. During the State change from Edit to Run I would like to change few settings of the VI in which the X control is placed. Please help me. All I need is some thing like the "Caller VI Ref" for the X control.

P.S:

I tried the caller chain Vi it gives only the X control name with proxy appended but not the VI name in which it is called.

The container state has a refnum to the actual control from which you can get the owning VI:

The exec State Change Event (which you are looking at) returns the VIRef in the Event data as well.
