have been using excel automation for several years without any problems
and use the excel8.h and excel8.cpp files that were generated by Visual
C++ ages ago (probably with Excel 97). Everything works except that
these files have nothing in them about AddIns

(Maybe addins only added as a feature after Excel 97)

I've tried regenerating these wrapper classes using Visual Studio 2005
but it wants to create separate classes which is fine except I cant get
them to work

each generated class has the following line
#import "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Office\\OFFICE11\\EXCEL.EXE"
no_namespace

which causes the compiler to generate errors by the ton - example below
1>c:\exceltest\exceltest\capplication.h(3) : warning C4278: 'RGB':
identifier in type library 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft
Office\\OFFICE11\\EXCEL.EXE' is already a macro; use the 'rename' qualifier
1>c:\exceltest\exceltest\capplication.h(3) : warning C4278: 'RGB':
identifier in type library 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft
Office\\OFFICE11\\EXCEL.EXE' is already a macro; use the 'rename' qualifier
1>c:\exceltest\exceltest\capplication.h(3) : warning C4192:
automatically excluding 'IFont' while importing type library
'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Office\\OFFICE11\\EXCEL.EXE'
1>c:\exceltest\exceltest\capplication.h(3) : warning C4192:
automatically excluding 'IPicture' while importing type library
'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Office\\OFFICE11\\EXCEL.EXE'



Can anyone point me to the simpler header and cpp wrapper files for
Excel - or let me know how to get vs2005 to work with the newer class
wrappers


Many thanks
Phil

These are all warnings, where are the errors , show the errors, as I am aware
of an error that occurs generally, but only after you show the errors..
