Any good Automation & OCX References?

paulflory

Can anyone recommend good books on the topics of
Automation and/or OCX which would prove helpful in
writing Navision code?

Or is this something not even worth investing my time in?

Thanks!

Dear Paul,

Automation is definitely something to spend time on ! A good tip : Because you work with COM components, the language you have to use to speak to this objects is almost standardized. Of course, there are some basic differences. F.E. if you have clear a variabele :
in vb it's WdApp = nothing,
but in Navision it's Clear(WdApp);
(I think it's obvious)
But in general the commando's are almost the same. So just study the Automation examples at MSDN and just rewrite them a little bit for C/Side. Good luck.

Kind Regards,
