Rapid Data - user.sys file

In the connection to RapidData you must pass the Task, Module, and persistent parameter.  Each task has a user.sys file.  Is there a way to point to the user.sys file assoicated with the task instead of the module name?

    Does the following not work (where "myVar" is some PERS atomic type in user.sys and ctrl is a reference to a controller object)?
    Dim rd As RapidDomain.RapidData
    Dim str1 as string
    rd = ctrl.Rapid.GetRapidData("T_ROB1", "user", "myVar")
    str1 = rd.ToString()
    As far as I know, any module that is not hidden or protected in some way should be accessible by using its name, which should be the same as its filename. Am I missing something here?    RussD2006-3-9 15:5:32

    Thanks Russ.  It worked!  I guess if you use "user" for the module name then you can put the persistent data in the user.sys file.  Thanks for the help!
