Is there a way to see data across all tasks in a controller? For example i have VAR num nChkCount; declared in task 1 and want to be able to read it in task 2 but unless its declared locally in task 2 it can not be seen.

    Hello, you have to declare your variable as PERS in the two tasks:
    PERS num nChkCount:=0;

    Or, could turn nChkCount into a group output to be used by any task.

    im trying to avoid duplicating data, instead im just passing the num through a group output and reading it in the other task

    Either way, but it's not data duplication -- by declaring a global PERS in both tasks they stay linked as one.
