We need to take data from our app and merge it into a Word document.
It is functioning now with the Office Classes RB provides (and/or
OLE), but we feel that having to copy our app into the Microsoft
Office/Office folder is silly. We don't want our end users to have to
do that.
Has anyone come up with an Office Automation solution where you
*don't* have to copy your app into the Microsoft Office/Office folder?
It can obviously be done - Quickbooks, Account Edge and a bunch of
others export their data right into Office without having to put the
app in that folder.
Is AppleScript a solution? Applescript support is limited in Office
2001 and X but is very powerful in 2004.
Do we need to have a separate app that installs into the Office
folder that we can pass data to and then it passes data to Office?
Is there another way?
Suggestions are appreciated.
