Openoffice activex control name??

Does anyone know the Activex server name for Openoffice or the location of the file to generate an Activex control for Openoffice?  I need to do some simple R/W to a Calc file through CVI 8.5.

 

Alternatively, is there any other way to manipulate a Calc file in CVI?  (BTW, converting to text option will not do.)

 

Not much info on this in the forum.

It looks like Open Office doesn't utilize ActiveX, it does however us another technology that can be accessed through a COM controller, check out this document for more information, if you figure out how to do this and have some tips, please post back. Also if anyone else has done this before, and would like to shed some light on the situation, please feel free.
