Insert equation to MS Word form string control

Hi!

I would like to use MS Word equation function.
So I have a string control, set text i.e. "E= mc^2", (when I use tags in MS Word, select text ->equation function -> Professional, the result is a format what I excepted.) my question is how to do this automatically from labview?
So, if I set any tags to String control, the text converted to equation (->professional) and the result can be seen in ms word doc? 

Thank you!

You have to use ActiveX in order to program MS Word from an external program. This KB article talks about ActiveX and LabVIEW in general. There's also a chapter in the LabVIEW Help. Beyond that you need to look at the MS Word automation documentation to find out what properties/commands to use to insert an equation.
