Hi, I´m trying to develop a program automating OLE Applications such as EXCEL or AUTOCAD<br />
<br />
I´ve tried this code for EXCEL<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;var<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;OleApplication :variant;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;OleWorkBook &nbsp; &nbsp;:variant;<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;begin<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; OleApplication := CreateOleObject('Excel.App<wbr />lication')<wbr />;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; OleApplication.visible:=Tr<wbr />ue;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; OleWorkBook:=OleApplicatio<wbr />n.Workbook<wbr />s.Add;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;end;<br />
<br />
But compiler reports this error :<br />
<br />
[Error] Unit1.pas(104): Undeclared identifier: 'CreateOleObject'<br />
<br />
When i try similar code for AutoCAD i gets an error in the same method.<br />
<br />
What´s wrong ?
