Default 4th Dimension and Excel - 12-08-2003 , 03:35 AM






Hi

Are there any 4th Dimension experts out there?

I'm a software engineer from a VB background and have recently been
given the task of integrating third party functionality into our
company's database application written in 4D. I have some VB code
that looks like this:

Dim oExcelApp As Object
' oExcel set in call to third party DLL
oExcelApp.ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(1).CopyPicture

I need to be able to do this exact same thing directly using 4D and
want to know if it's possible without having to write a VC++ DLL that
sits between 4D and COM.

Many thanks
Julia.

Julia,

You may have better luck on the 4D Mailing Lists
<http://www.4d.com/maillists>

However there is an excellent tech note showing how to integrate 4D with Excel
