How do I get an activeX object reference from a LabVIEW ActiveXContainer ref?

How do I get an activeX object reference from a LabVIEW ActiveXContainer ref?
I'm trying to control an ActiveX object (a Web Browser) from another VI and need to get the object reference programmatically. I can get the LabVIEW ActiveXContainer reference, but am lost on how to get the reference for the object _inside_ the container.

Hi Lee,

The reference to the container is actually also accessing the object inside the container. Use the Property Node and Invoke Node to access properties and launch methods for the object. I've attached a small example that passes the reference to a SubVI and invokes a method inside the SubVI.
