opening a word document in WORD with labview

[Thijs Boeree]

Hi, i am trying to open a word document in WORD with a VI, but i can't get
it to work i've tried the command VI but it only opens applications, because
when i type the path where the *.doc file is it doesn't open a file? Does
anyone knows which VI i need?

Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,

Hi Thijs,


You will need to use ActiveX interface.
Try this example :-
