Report Generation Toolkit and Office XP and 2K

[pawel]

Hello Everybody

I am having few problems with running executable using Report Generation Toolkit on machine with Office 2000, which was compiled and build on machine with Office XP (toolkit also XP).
There are many errors which pops up, but the very first one is that the "New Report.vi" can not open the existing Excel book.

Is there any trick, which allows machines with Office 2k to run application build with Office XP?

Thanks in advance.

I am not sure you can do that because the Office XP has different active x controls. However, I was able to build the applicatons with report generation toolkit for 2K that also works for OfficeXP machine.

It could be related to the following.

You must add _Word Dynamic Vis.vi from _wordsub.llb and _Excell Dymamic VIs.vi from _exclsub.llb as dynamic vi's on the source Files Tab when you build an application.

Hope this helps

Hi Imad

Yes I know that. If you did not do that both Office 2k and XP do not work.

Hi Cin

Yes, that is correct. The reason why I ask was how to find a solution so both XP and 2k can work in the same time.
You are right that most of the features for XO and 2k are simmilar, but try to use XP to open w 2k workbook from excel, it will fail.
