How do I use Visual basic forms from a labview VI

Can I make visual basic forms (.frm) that can be called and used by Labview?

Is there a way to export data from labview to an active X control or a VB application.

No! You can make Active X components in Visual Basic though and call
them through the LabVIEW Active X nodes.

Well, not as Active X control. However you can either connect the
LabVIEW application as Automation server (A subset of what you can do
through VI Server is then available as Active X methods and properties.

Or you can create a DLL form your VIs with the LabVIEW Application
Builder and call that DLL from VB or any other application which can
call DLLs.
