First time posting, so please be easy.
I am trying to learn how to use the Active X capabilites of LabVIEW. I have
created a vi which displays a 3d surface plot of my data in an pseudo-animated
fashion by updating the graph by sending it successive plots via a while
loop. My problem is that I am trying to link this 3d surface plot to a powerpoint
presentation (using Visual Basic) so that the vi will update the 3d plot
in the presentation when a button is pushed to start the animation. I think
that it's possible, but I am new to Active X and Visual Basic and could use
some help. Specifically, I would like to know how to link LV with controls
embedded in other application's documents and how to use Visual Basic to
re
ad Active X controls in vi's. I have looked at the examples on the NI site
as well as a couple of books, but I am still stuck.
Thanks!
