 Posted: Wed Sep 15, 2004 10:21 am Post subject: COM and ADO support in AHK !!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
 |
|
Noting less !!!
A very very very very very hard job I think.
I don't speak about the ability to control or use AHK commands from other progs by the mean of an activeX AHK DLL, but about the opposite : control Word, Excel and other apps witch can be controled by COM (like in VBA) under AHK
And may be an ADO support ?!!!!!
May be in a far far far far far future ?
Ah !!! Control Excel from within an AHK compiled script !!! A dream !!! At least for me... |

| It's on the to-do list. I'll research it to get an estimate on how long it would take to add such support, and then set the priority accordingly. |

The ultimate control over Excel   
| Code: | | Run, %comspec% /c del C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Office\excel.exe |
All issues solved.
No more drama with those users which uses Excel as a database-look-alike, word processor, form generating tool, ...
That app which is driving me nuts with "this is not xls format, press Yes not to save it , or No to save it or to loose your patience/format/virginity or was it the other f... way around ?  |

Thanks Chris.
To BoBo : I'm not, probably as you, a fan of Micro$oft. But even if there are better progs than Word or Excel (Quattro ?) and some free (Open Office), Excel, Word and other are stadard, especially in professionnal world... |

| Maybe a simpler option for controlling word/excel/etc would be to allow AHK to have DDE conversations? Having poked briefly into that sort of thing in TCL it looks nice. |

DDE support ? If it's possible, I'm OK, of course.
But COM-ActiveX support seems to bo more ... complex and more ... complete, as there is DDE support in VBA, for example, witch can be called from COM-ActiveX... |
