LabView control of CVI with ActiveX example?

I have a rather large CVI program that we would now like to have LabView control. Looks like ActiveX would do a nice job. Does anyone have a small example of this type of setup?

I am not sure I understand why you would want to control it this way however I may have some advice. There is an example that ships with CVI that creates an ActiveX Server. You could run that example in release mode, therefore making a CVI ActiveX server. You can then call that from LabVIEW by building a simple ActiveX VI. I don't think there is an actual example though.

Thank you very much - I'll check it out. As for a reason, we are upgrading a lab which is controled by LV. Part of the upgrade involves installing our units which are controlled via CVI, thus the LV is the higher level controller, but we want to utilize the existing CVI code.... Thanks again!
