Microsoft Office Graph Filter

[mhhernand]

Hello!

I am trying to handle Microsoft Office Word with LabWindows CVI 8.0, I can open a file, add text, tables, etc. Nevertheless I have had troubles to insert a Graph as image in Word. I am using "InsertGraph" function of wordrpt.prj from the Examples. Sometimes the function works correctly, but eventually a Microsoft Office Word Error appears.The pop-up error windows says:

Graphs Filter can not convert this file

C:\Program Files\....\MSWORD.OLB

I am using Office 2003.

Has someone worked on this?

I appreciatte your help? Thanks

Do you need to insert it as a graph object or will an image suffice?

If you can use an image, you can export the graph into a supported image file format and then try inserting a picture in the Word document.

Otherwise, I can't really suggest anything except maybe to try regenerating the Word ActiveX server or to try an earlier version of Word to see if it is version dependent.

Thanks Martin:

In my application it does not matter if I insert the graph as a graph object or as an image? But I think is better to do it as image.

First, I wll try to regenerating the Word ActiveX server. But I have not created any Active X Server in this project. Should I create a new ActiveX Server Wizard?

Greetings,

You use the Create ActiveX Automation Server tool and generate the server that way. I suggest NOT overwriting the existing one because if it doesn't work, you may have some serious problems, so create it in a new directory.
