Displaying WinWord document in OLE Control

[LetukaS]

Hi,
I want to display a .doc or .docx on an OLEControl within my Powerbuilder window, I don't want it to pop up in the MS Word window. I am using a Standard Control OLEControl for MS Word, everytime I call the Open function it pops the microsoft window and nothing shows on my OLE Control.

Need a nudge in the right direction here.

Try

String lFileNameWithFullPath, lFileName
Integer lResult

lResult = GetFileOpenName( "Select Document to Open in OLE Control", lFileNameWithFullPath, &
lFileName, "Doc", "Documents (*.doc), *.doc" )

If lResult <> 1 Then Return

lResult = ole_1.InsertClass( "word.document" )

If lResult <> 0 Then
  MessageBox( "Error while inserting Class", "Error No: " + String( lResult ) )
  Return -1
End If

lResult = ole_1.Open( lFileNameWithFullPath )

If lResult <> 0 Then
  MessageBox( "Error while opening the specified Class File", "Error No: " + String( lResult ))
  Return -1
End If

I resorted to using dsoFramer to solve my problem, and helped overcome the cumbersome job of hiding the 'ribbon' on msword.
