Hello Antonio,

I started using FWH 8.09 today.

I noticed that I got an error :

" Unresolved external symbol 'HB_FUN_OLEUNITIALIZE' ".

I also got a GPF in these lines :

• OleInvoke(hWordDocs,"Close")
• OleInvoke(hWordDocs,"Open",cPath)

In FWH 8.04 all these functions worked fine.

What happened ?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Michel,

I'm not sure if this is the problem, but did you also download and install the version of Harbour or xHarbour that came with FWH 8.09?

Regards,
James

Michel,

We have modified FWH to use the standard Class TOleAuto from Harbour/xHarbour and remove our own functions for it.

To create an OLE auto object call to CreateObject( "..." ) and then use the datas and methods directly:

Instead of: OleInvoke(hWordDocs,"Close"), OleInvoke(hWordDocs,"Open",cPath)

do:

oWordDocs:Close()
oWordDocs:Open( cPath )

James,

I used xHarbour Builder which was released today.

Antonio,

Jesus Christ, that means a whole lot of work for me. I use OLE very, very much in my application.

Where can I find a list of all the possibilities ?

For instance, how do I change :

OleInvoke(hWordOle,"Run","JUD_OPSL")

This functions runs a macro "JUD_OPSL" which has been defined in Word.

Thanks.

Michel,

Yes, we know it and we apologize for it but it has no sense to keep an OLE engine in FWH when Harbour/xHarbour provide a very good one.

The Class TOleAuto uses the ON ERROR classes sentence to route all datas and methods as if they really belong to the object.

> For instance, how do I change :
> OleInvoke(hWordOle,"Run","JUD_OPSL")

hWordOle:Run( "JUD_OPSL" )

the conversion is quite simple. A source code editor macro can help you to modify your code. Do you use UEStudio ?

Antonio,

I did the conversion today to ToleAuto().

Everything is working fine.

Is ToleAuto() working likewise for OLE and Outlook ?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Excellent, congratulations! Thanks for your understanding and work to do the change.

Yes, of course. Look for CreateObject() in these forums. There are many examples.
