hello friends,
i have a big Problem. i want to open Excel on labviews, so i create 4 subIVs.
in one subIV i want to connect AUTOMATION MODE with a PROPERTY NODE called _Application.
If i do this, the property VISIBLE changes his colour from green to black and then i cant connect VISBILE to the boolean.
what can i do, sorry for my bad english.
Solved! Go to Solution.

That's because you need an Automation Refnum control that you assigned the Excel Application class to, not an Automation Container. The container only can instantiate Active X control capable classes and the Excel.Application is not an Active X control class but an ActiveX automation class.
The Excel ActiveX container class does not have a Visible property, Instead you make the container itself visible or invisible through a LabVIEW property for that object.
