When read, this property returns the run-time menu path of the VI. When written, this property updates the run-time menu path of the VI. If the VI is running when you write this property, it updates the menu with data from the new path.

Use this property to programmatically specify the path for a run-time menu (.rtm) file. This is useful if you are developing multilingual applications and you want to switch menus for each language programmatically.
