OK I am writing a program in C++. I want the GUI to be in Labview and I need the C++ program and Labview GUI to communicate. So I used the app builder to create an ActiveX Server. So how do I use this? Do I use the GUI.tlb instead of the normal labview.tlb? Do I still create an application reference to Labview or do I create an application reference to GUI.exe since this is my executeable now? I can't find much documentation on this at all... Please help!

Switch over to using the GUI components that you mention. Think of it this way, your C++ program could need to use both LabVIEW and GUI. For that to work, most of the connection pieces have to be specific about what they are dealing with.
