Drawing charts in excel and importing them to a Win32 C++ App

viper_47_2

Urgently need to know if it is possible to draw a chart or graph from a Win32 App in Visual C++ using MS Excel ??

Have scoured web and found nothing.

Any help would be appreciated !!!

Thanks.

Not sure exactly what you want to do.
But you can always use the Excel DOM to do it get a WorkSheetPtr and look for teh charts collection and add to that or enumerate it if you're trying to retrieve a chart

to help you on your way

#import "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\mso9.dll" no_namespace
#import "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VBA\VBA6\vbe6ext.olb" no_namespace
#import "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\excel9.olb" rename("DialogBox", "ExcelDialogBox") rename("RGB", "ExcelRGB") rename("DocumentProperties", "ExcelDocumentProperties") rename("ExitWindows", "ExcelExitWindows")

You'd get more help on the programming board I'd suspect.

Thanks Rev Hellfire,

So this will let me retrieve a chart from excel and display it in a Win32 App using Visual C++ ??

If so, then it sounds like it is exactly what i need.
