Hi there,

I'm a newbee :). What I'm trying to do is to use an Office Web Component in a web App like I did in a Win App. When I drag and drop the ChartSpace object to the web form, window does not generate some code automaticly in the ASPX.vb file; so what I did is copy the similar code like generate automaticly in a Win App (Protected AxChartSpaceData As AxMicrosoft.Office.Interop.OWC.AxChartSpace).
But when a use the object the first time in : AxChartSpaceData.clear() . I got the error.
Does some one know how to use the OWC in a WEb App how to set is object step by step?

I would greatly appreciate any help out there. Thank you.

I don't think that OWC provides a .Net component interface. You might be able to set a COM reference in your project. The other option you have is to use late binding (this requires OPTION STRICT to be off).

Dim myChartSpace As Object

myChartSpace = Server.CreateObject("OWC.Chartspace")

Hi,

Thanks of your helps. But now that I created the object how can I make the reference to the OWC that I created in my webform? or how can I make the just created OWC visible in my webform?

Thnaks again,

Serf

That's a good question. Have you tried adding it to the controls collection of your form, or some other container control? There may be an issue here, since it is not a .Net assembly. Give it a try though.

Go to the "bin" folder of your web application


1º)Create a file "owc.bat" with this code:

aximp.exe c:\archivos de programa\archivos comunes\michosoft shared\office web controls\owc10.dll

(or in english pc find the path to this dll.... ;-)

2º) you will have several dll's in your bin folder,

now you can start typing something like this in your code to automate the owc:

Import namespace owc10
(...)
Dim pivottable as New owc10.pivottable


3º) this same aplies to any activex (dll/ocx) you want to use.

4º) hope you post me a good example of using pivottable.... I am working with this now to generate reports sending the pivottable.htmldata property to the client.

good day

Luis

Hi.

Please help

I'm having the same problem.

When i drag a chartspace onto a app form, vs.net generates the codes and recognise the object.

However, when i create the object in web form the vs.net treates it as an object. How did you get Vs.Net to recognise OWC10 in web form?

Cheers
