Fernandotid Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Hello. I would like to ask you a question. I've seen that it is possible to open and to write arrays and tables into an excel file and show it from labview using ActiveX. Is it possible to make something like that wiht Microsoft word? I mean, I want to write some strings into a word document using active x but I don't know how to do it because I'm new using activeX controls. Thank you very much. :headbang: Quote Link to comment

RMB(mouse menu)>> Insert ActiveX Object 3. Select at the top:'Create Document' >> at list: Microsoft Word Document On the diagram: 4. Functions>>Communication>> ActiveX>> 5. Terminal 'Document' >wire>Automation Open function >> Property Node and Invoke Node gets you lots of fun best regards Mikrobi Quote Link to comment

Mike Ashe Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Search on NI DevZone, there is an example that does what you want and includes a library of VIs to use ACtiveX to make a small report in Word, including tables, etc. Creating a Report in Word ... Play around with the methods and property nodes, kyou will find that there is very little you cannot do by modifying this. Quote Link to comment
