Hi chris_chua,
The header file (cviauto.h) is used for the CVI Automation Library which allows for the use of ActiveX. The functions typically follow the prototype of "CA_functionname (param 1, param, 2, etc.)". It also is used when accessing the TestStand API in CVI.
ActiveX Library Help List

Note that if you select any of these functions and read the online help they will list:
Library: ActiveX Library
Include file: cviauto.h
Also an example of using cviauto.h for the TestStand API:
