Hi I found the follwong text in LV Help: > Editing ActiveX Documents > Complete the following steps to edit an ActiveX document in the ActiveX container. > Right-click the ActiveX container and select Edit Object from the shortcut menu. The document's application opens the document in a new window. > Edit the document in the new window. > If the ActiveX document supports an ActiveX Automation interface, you can use the document with the ActiveX Property Node and Invoke Node on the block diagram.
How can I do this in the block diagramm? I want to edit the values in the document while the vi is running. thanks for your help
The help is vague because the details are dependent on the ActiveX application and what properties and methods are exposed. Is is Word, Excel, or something else? There's several examples under the ActiveX heading on this page. NI sells the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit that takes a lot of the pain out of learning Word or Excel's ActiveX interface.
thanks for your help. I just studied the Toolkit but coouldn't find an answer either. It event might not be possible with the toolkit because it always writes generated data and you can't click on a cell of the container document and input some values by yourself. This is what I found out.
