Activex Control with Office 2003

Hi,
I have an application where i need to export data to MS Word for reporting purposes. Thing is it works fine with Word 2000, but when i tried it on a Word 2003 system, the 'Table population' code gives me an error. I am reporting a data table, where I show all the results of calculations. any ideas on fixing this one?

Hi Anand,
Have you tried running one of the sample applications that come packaged with LV 7.1? In particular, try running the example titled "Sample Report (Word).vi". It uses the high level VIs to create a Word Document, including a table that is populated with data. If that works, I would look into comparing that example with your code and see what they have done differently.

MapPoint ActiveX Control with Labview 7.1

I am looking for a basic example on how to integrate a MapPoint ActiveX control into a Labview vi so I can pull up maps at a given set of lat-long coordinates with zoom in and out capability. I'm new to Labview and activex container use and have not previously attempted to program with MapPoint, but that is what I have to work with. Not finding discussions on MapPoint use with Labview, at either MS site or here, so am looking for assistance to get me started. Using Labview 7.1, MapPoint 2004 and Windows XP.

Hi,
I'm afraid I don't have any experience with MapPoint, but some of the other members might. If so, it would be great if they could post any code they may have...
As a general rule, programming ActiveX is a little tricky since properties and methods aren't always documented well. Furthermore, the ActiveX hierarchies for a particular application can change from revision to revision. This is why programs using activeX to interface with Word or Excel have problems with different versions of Office. If you have to use Map Point, you may want to check MSDN for any information they may have. You may also want to check out the ActiveX examples in the Example Finder by searching for ActiveX. They should give a general understanding of how ActiveX programming is done on the LabVIEW side of things.
If you can use a web based application, it might make your life a little easier. You can specify lat long coordinates in Google Maps very easily. Im attaching a simple application that does this for you. Just enter the lat and long in decimal format and hit run. The resulting map will show up in the container on the front panel and you can pan or zoom to your heart's content. I hope this helps. Good luck with your application and happy holidays!
Regards,
Chris J

Integrating custom ActiveX control with SapGUI

Hi everybody
I'm in the process of writing a custom MFC based ActiveX control written in C++ that we want to use in a product. I am currently at the point where I can instantiate the control and interact with the various methods that it exposes but I have a problem integrating the control more tightly with the SapGUI e.g. change of colors, fonts etc.
I want to make the control to reflect the user changes when the user modifies any settings of the SapGUI. I've tried catching various events that are exposed by some of the dictionary classes such as cl_gui_props_consumer=>color_change/global_prop_change and cl_gui_resources=>resources_changed but these events only fire in my control once the PAI of the client program that encapsulates the control fires which is hardly appropriate since it means that the control will have to wait for user input before it will change reflect any changes in user settings.
I've written a test program for my control and when I change my SapGUI colors the rest of the controls etc on the screen do change color but my control only change color once I've performed some action that fires the PAI. Personally I think the controls written by SAP intergrates with the SapGUI through some interface that is called behind the scenes by the SapGUI since the GUI will have some way of knowing the set of ActiveX controls instantiated inside it and I cannot find any event in the ABAP controls framework (e.g. CL_GUI_OBJECT, CL_GUI_CONTROL) that will allow this type of integration. I'll be digging for the answer but any suggestions will by greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Kind regards
Ettienne Hugo

Hello Ettienne Hugo,
To get the SAP GUI Theme or font changes events you need to add your MFC application or ActiveX MFC dll into u201CSAP Configuration->Application Tab->Addu201D and u need to call the functions SapHookInit and to stop getting the change events u need to call SapHookExit.(sapfhook.dll provides these functions)
I tried with exe, never tried with ActiveX MFC dll/ocx. With EXE it works.
Thanks and Regards,
Ashwini

Win 8.1 Pro 32 Bit Compatibility with Office 2003 SP3 32 Bit

Hi,
Our one of the customer has recently updated Win 8.1 Pro 32 Bit from Win XP. They are using MS Office 2003 32 Bit since long. With XP Office 2003 was working perfectly. But with Win 8.1 they have found one problem.
When they are typing mail ID in "TO" or "CC" the saved email ID is appear but by pressing ENTER the Auto fill action is not accepted. Because of this problem, customer have to type email id manually each and every time.
Can you please help me to resolve or clarify this problem.
Thank You..!!

Hi Shashank,
Just as Dominic's share, Microsoft Office 2003 suites and applications are not compatible with Windows 8 and later Operating System.
I suggest you upgrade your Office version. Microsoft Office 2013 could work on Windows 8.1 seamlessly.

Acrobat 9 and 10 on the same computer with Office 2003

I am using windows xp. I currently have acrobat 9.x pro installed and PDFMaker is installed in my Office 2003 application...works great. I am considering upgrading from CS4 to CS 5.5 which includes Acrobat 10. I would like to know if I can install Acrobat 10 on the same machine as 9 and if so, will PDFMaker be available for each version in the Office 2003.
Thanks,
Chick

Having 2 versions of Acrobat together is possible (though not recommended), but you will have only one PDFMaker in Office 2003 - ie. from latest version of Acrobat. The entire list of supported PDFMakers with various Office versions/applications is available at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333504.html

X5 Compatibility with Office 2003

Hello everyone,
This morning I installed X5 with .02 Update on a new computer
that has Windows XP and Office 2003. I have Admin Rights. Today was
to mark the conversion of my Winhelp projects to HTML. I opened
RoboHelp HTML and proceeded to import the HPJ, which led to the
"Robohelp has encountered an error and needs to close" message. I
tried again and got the same thing. I uninstalled/reinstalled and
tried again. Same thing. I then tried to create a new project. I
filled in all the blanks and when I clicked Finish, I got the same
message.
I know Word 2003 hasn't played very well with RoboHelp for
Word in the past, but is it the same with RoboHelp HTML? I'm truly
stumped
Thanks for any input.
Jennifer

I would suggest then that the problem is related to your
project. Have you tried rebooting your PC and then trying to create
a new project - i.e. before you've tried converting your HPJ? If
that works it definitely is your project. In that case I'd try
separating the RTF file into smaller RTF files and import them one
at a time. If you hit the same problem you know where your problem
in. Repeat this exercise until you narrow the problem down enough.
Best of luck.

Matlab ActiveX control with DIAdem

I have successfully used DIAdem to transfer data back and forth with Matlab using Active, as well as run Matlab scripts. However, I would like to be able to see the Matlab command window (errors, warnings, etc.) as the script is running. Also, I have found that when having DIAdem open a Matlab .m file (using the NI files from the support website), variables that are 1 x 1 in size are not retrieved by DIAdem and in addition, some variables get a _1 etc. tagged onto the end of them. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Hello Justin,
if you use the little ActiveX control we provided, the MATLAB command window is visible once you connect to MATLAB. If you run a script nothing happens in this window because echo is "off" by default.
Use the "Execute" method to send "echo on all" before you execute the M-script
The GetChannel method is optimized to transfer array from MATLAB to DIAdem and doesn't accept single variables. There is a work around you can use to retrieve single variables from MATLAB :
You can use "GetCharVar" which is a method of the ActiveX control to retrieve a (single) character variable. If your variable is of a different type, please use the MATLAB function num2str to convert it before you retrieve it.
Here is an example :
' load a file..
Call oMatLabM.Execute("load D:\Source\scriptlibrary\Test\ML_SingleRow.mat")
' convert variable A to string :
Call oMatLabM.Execute("zzz = num2str(A)")
' retrieve it :
myVar = oMatLabM.GetCharVar("zzz")
' show it
MsgBox(myvar)
You may find it helpful to list all variables together with type and dimension. Please refer to the little script I have attached which shows how to list all variables in the current MATLAB workspace
Let me know if you need more details...

Office 2013 ActiveX Controls no Popup

Hello,
I am testing the active x control settings, but I don´t get a popup message for active x. I have enabled the option to promt me before active x code is executed, but its working without any popup. If I disable active x control the occurs the excepted behave
that no active x code is executed. For testing I have created only a simple active x control with some vba code for a msgbox.
So my question is, under which
circumstances the popup message for active x appears?
Thanks.

If the Trust Center detects a potentially unsafe ActiveX control , the control is disabled, and the Message Bar appears to notify you of a potentially unsafe ActiveX control. Depends on how the ActiveX control is marked and whether a VBA project exists in
the file together with the ActiveX control.

Potential Bug with LabVIEW 2009, Report Generation Toolkit, and MS Office 2003

We have discovered an issue with the above listed software. Specifically this pertains to Print Report.vi in the Report Gen palette. Basically, we have discovered that with Office 2003 installed the VI will error out. We've been using it in an executable, and the executable physically fails (and asks us to report an error to Microsoft). With Office 2007 we don't have a problem. We've tried building the examples into executables, and those work because they are printing HTML reports.
Also, we have converted back to LabVIEW 8.6 and rebuilt the executable and installed and it works perfectly. Its on the combination of LabVIEW 2009 and Office 2003 that seems to fail.

yeah, we had seen that, and been told about it by another user. we tried, to no avail. we still have ended up having to migrate back to 8.6.1 to get the executable to run properly.

Problems with automation open for activex control

Hi,
I want to open an ActiveX Control (.ocx-file) with the Automation Open function. This .ocx file was successfully registered by using regsvr32.
The VI is working fine after using Automation Open and all the contained classes are accessible.
However, after saving the VI and opening it again the error 2147221164 appears and the program failes - referencing the object new at the Automation Open functions solves the problem, but only till the next reopening of the VI.
Hope somebody has a solution for this "instability"...
Sorry for bothering and thanks for any help!!!

Hi smercurio_fc,
originally i had a dll written in c++ which contained classes - i wrapped this in a activex control to have access via labview. Im calling the activex control with the automation open function in same VI in which i am also using property nodes and invoke nodes to have access to the classes and methods...
But as i told before, it happens that Automation Open fails, when starting the VI again after closing(saving), even so it was working perfectly fine before...
Thanks for your response...
