in NAV Three Tier
Hello.
I have made a certain code in C# which I want to implement to OpenXML to use it as a DotNet function in Excel Buffer but I am not sure how to do this.
Is anyone here familiar with adding new stuff to OpenXML?
Thanks!

    Hi,

    You cannot add anything to the NAV assemblies or other standard OpenXml assemblies, but you can add you own .Net assembly with you code and use this in the Excel buffer together with the NAV assembly. Simple add you signed assembly to your own folder in the servers Add-ins folder and you can get access to the new functionality from you development environment. There is more information on msdn with respect to customizing NAV with .Net objects.

    Drop your dll to your Addin folder. make a new variable of dotnet and you will find your assembly there. use the methods and properties.
