API for Office programs?

[d00_ape]

Hi.

I’m a VC++ developer and writing all kind of applications. Now I’m in need to know how I can make programs to interact with Office programs. For e.g. how do I (programmatically) create a new word document, append some lines and saves it?
I have made wrappers of some Office-dll’s but don’t really know how to use them.

You need to read about MS Office Automation.

I have worked on this before, its not the funnest job, but once you get one function call running the rest are very similar.

check this link out for more info:

Hope this helps.

Also, search this forum for MS Word Automation as I have asked about this a while ago. The thread will be very helpful to you

good luck
