How can LabView FP controls be understood as standard window controls

[Boulder]

I want to use Quick_Test_Pro to control a LabView program. But the LabView FP controls can not be understood as standard window controls. Even the FP is controlled through HTML page, the HTML page is treated FP as one object instead of individual object for each controls. I have to write a separated window program with all controls on it and transfer all events to LabView through a text file. Does anyone know an easier way to do this?

LabVIEW controls and indicators are not and probably will never be standard windows controls. They are LabVIEW objects. If your software test program allows you to open an ActiveX reference, then you can use the methods Set Control Value and Get Control Value.

p.s. Does Boulder refer to where you live/work?

Thanks, Dannis!

My test program(VB) can open an activeX reference. Do you have any examples to show how to set control value and get control value?

ps: I lived in Boulder before and like it very much.

There's some VB examples here. I don't knwo if any specifically use the Get/Set Control Value. There's actually the Get/Set Control Value and Get/Set Control Value [Variant]. With the variant method, you just have to pass the control name and value as a variant.
