How to access Windows Com DLLs?

Hi!

I'm trying to access a DLL in MS Windows COM format. I tried to use the Call Library Function Node, but that doesn't work since I can't select the functions I'm looking for. The functions are declared as public. The problem seems to be the DLL itself.

Is there a way to directly access the COM DLL or do I have to write a wrapper and "simulate" a "regular" C Dll?

I'm using LabView 7.1

Thanks!

Nope - we have you covered. Take a look at the ActiveX palette under Communication. Note - it doesn't have to be a full ActiveX control to use those nodes - any COM component that has a type library.
