embed an application

[jmhf]

Hi,

I am tryinf to run an application (a remote desktop application) in a labview program.

My question is:

Is it possible to embed this remote desktop into a labview box? I do not know if it would be possible by using Active X containers or so.

Thanks in advance

Hi jm,

Good afternoon and I hope your well today.

Thanks for the post!

Have you seen this forum?  Bascially, its not be made easy in labview by design - but if you work at it you could achieve this.

Then using google I found that Remote Desktop ActiveX Control can be downloaded from the microsoft website. 

Microsoft: Downloading and Using the Remote Desktop ActiveX Control

Microsoft: Remote Desktop ActiveX Control Interface

To embedded this into LabVIEW front panel it would seem you could use an ActiveX container. I would consider looking at the Google Earth examples that show how to embed a webpage into LabVIEW front panel.

Community: Google Earth and LabVIEW

So to make it clear, you have two steps, 

1) Embed the Remote Panels into a webpage (the way I read it)

2) Then use ActiveX to display webpage on labVIEEW front panel

Hope this helps some,
