Is it possible to convert a LabView .ldd Instrument Driver into a dll that can be used with MAX and visual basic?

I got the following problem. I'm using a Stanford DS360 UltraLow Destortion Function Generator, and would like to access it with the CwIVIFgen ActiveX Controll. In the driver database i found a instrument driver for LabView (ds360fg.llb). But its a llb file and i am not sure what to do.
Is it possible to convert it?
Is it possible to use it anyways?

Maybe i overread the answer, but i search the forums for quite a while now and i am not a bit wiser.
Thanks in advance
Felix

If you have LabVIEW and the application builder, a dll can be created from it but it cannot be used as an IVI driver. The only way to create an IVI instrument driver is with LabWindows/CVI. I personally don't have the time right now to create the dll but maybe if you post to the LabVIEW forum and get someone there to do it. Another other option is to hire an Alliance member to create either a dll from the LabVIEW code or to create an IVI driver from scratch.
