    Hi, I have developed a small application for Windows Mobile 6.x OS with VB.net and When I browsethe available .NET references, The Microsoft office com objects are not listed. My aim is to convert a listview to an Excel file in mobile application. Therefore I intended to define "Imports Microsoft.Office.Excel" statement but there is no office com objects. How can solve the problem Thanks.

    What a curious mind needs to discover knowledge is noting else than a pin-hole.

        You are a bit stuck I'm afraid. Referencing the Excel Automation objects will not work for you because it is not Excel you are interfacing with, but rather Pocket Excel. Problem is that Pocket Excel does not expose and automation interface, therefore you cannot do it. I have heard that there are third party products that enable you to work on the underlying files directly. www.tmssoftware.com[^] provides some of these, though I have never tried to use them.

        If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it. Margaret Fuller (1810 - 1850) www.JacksonSoft.co.uk
