activvision ActiveX Getting Disable??

[rajkumar.r]

Hai everyone,

         i am working with a Activex of Activvision tools,the Activex works perfectly while i am working through visual Basic but while i were working through labview,all the activeX getting disabled whenever i presses the close button of the popup window of activeX.

   similar thing i did in visual basic also but no problem happens,the popup window closes properly....

For calling ActiveX,I am using the activex through activex container...

I am pretty confident that there is no problem in Activvision ActiveX...

Thanks & regards

Hi rajkuma.r,
Do any other ActiveX objects placed in the container show similar behavior, such as a Windows Media Player ActiveX Control? What do you mean by the ActiveX interface becoming disabled when you close it, and what version of LabVIEW are you using?

Thanks for your reply,

   This problem is coming only with their activex,the other activex which i used in the screen is alright...

the same thing i tried in VB 6.0 ,but no issues in it,...

i attached two pictures one picture was taken before disabling,and after disabled position

Is their any special configuration i need to dofor calling this activex?

Thanks and regards..

What LabVIEW version are you using?

I wonder if you'll avoid the same problem if you instead call the ActiveX object using Automation Refnum VIs on your block diagram rather than through the ActiveX container placed on the Front Panel. If you open up the LabVIEW Example Finder and look for the slideshow example (under Communicating with External Applications » ActiveX » General, or you can find it by searching for activex in the example finder), it shows a very simple VI which opens up Powerpoint, makes the window visible, loads a presentation, and runs the slideshow in full screen. Perhaps you can do the same thing with your Activvision call and see if it works fine like with VB 6.0?

Thanks for ur reply,

  I am using LabVIEW 8.2 VERSION,i need to show the front panel of the activex in the LabVIEW front panel,so i can't go with the automation open.

sametime while i was trying with automation refnum with the activex,i waqs trying for automation open,it was giving some unknown error....

Thanks & regards

What errors were you getting when you tried calling the ActiveX object via the Automation Open method? These might be useful in further diagnosing the problem you are experiencing.
