Migrating to Borland 2009 - Office Application

[Nita]

Hi,

I don't know if this is the right place or not, hope it is. I have
been given the task to find out if we can migrate from borland6 to
borland 2009 without too much trouble, as chances are the components
that we use, are not going to be supported fro much longer.
Regardless, I need to get it all sorted.

The first thing that I am looking at, is to see what new functionality
that is available in the new office package. At the moment we are
using office97, and that has a TOutlookApplication, and we connect to
that and do all the things that we need to do that way. Now in
borland 2009 we have office2k and officexp, I figure why not use the
xp one, as it's newer. The only problem is that there is no
TOutlookApplication, rather a TApp.

I can't find anything on how you specifically set that to be an office
connection. Can someone please point me in the right direction,
please. Or, do I have to use the office2k ones, which have the
TOutlookApplication.

Thanks

Nita

Ask in a borland newsgroup.  Search the borland.public hierarchy.

That FAQ is a bit out of date WRT Borland's stuff.

CodeGear was sold to Embarcadero, so it's no longer Borland (it's
still called CodeGear though). Their newsgroup servers have changed.
However, they just opened up a brand spankin' new forum (it's tied to
their newsgroups) here:

Be sure to ask in the appropriate topic. I'd suggest C++ Builder ->
IDE or C++ Builder -> Non-Technical. The group is generally very
responsive.


HTH,
