Re: Accessing Excel from ISE Eiffel

Hej

First the compiler recommended for Eiffel Studio 6.1 is this one:

"Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5"

When reading the instructions at the download page the System
Requirements it states are:

Supported Operating Systems: Windows Server 2003; Windows Server
2008; Windows Vista; Windows XP




Then for .NET I found this system requirement for using the
connections to MS Office:

Office XP PIAs
Brief Description
Download the Office XP PIAs and use them to develop Office XP
solutions with Visual Studio .NET.
Supported Operating Systems: Windows XP



Maybe the solution is to use an older version of Eiffel Studio. THen
I probably can use an older version of the MS compiler (if it is
still available) and also try to find an older version of the PIAs.


Regards

Anders
