Not via ActiveX, hence not like Excel.
Origin has a builtin scripting language "Labtalk" and has a DDE port. The
DDE server is crude and allows only the most recently opened Origin session
to accept DDE commands. To control it from Labview, you simply open a DDE
connection to Origin from the Labview end and send the Labtalk script you
want to execute as a long multiline string. The DDE send function returns an
error cluster that tells you whether Origin accepted the command or whether
an error occurred during script execution. If you want to get more detailed
information back from Origin, you have to set up a DDE server within Labview
and send Origin a script to open a new DDE connection to Labview and poke
the data you want through it- as far as I know you can't u
se DDE to query
Origin variables directly from Labview in a single step.
Microcal have a bulletin board on their website on which you can ask for
help on Origin scripting issues.
