If you merely modify the sub-vi and resave it then it will call the new sub-vi
everywhere. If you want to change the sub-vi to one of a different name then do the
following.
Open toplevel.vi
Open sub.vi
"save as" sub.vi as newsub.vi (do NOT check the box "save without updating callers")
close newsub.vi and toplevel.vi
rename changedsub.vi to newsub.vi in the same directory as newsub.vi
reopen toplevel.vi
Bingo, it will pickup the changed subVI everywhere it used to call sub.vi.
