Problems after inst. Office 2000

Alex

Hello,
we use Navision Financials 2.0d,
On some Workstation was installed
Office 2000 ( this month), right now i see that
in some Codeunit some Variables look like
this

---

Name DataType Subtype Length
wdApp Automation Unknown Automation Server.Application
==================================

---

If i now compile this Codeunit an get an
Error, but if i not compile the Codeunit
its work all fine !

Now my Question:
Should i change the Automation to the right
Automation Server, because some Workplaces
always use Office 98 and some Office 2000 !

Why fix anything still working? :-)

In case you compile it with office 2000, i'll almost bet it won't work with Office 97.

Therefore the developers need to use the oldest Office version in-house. Sad...

Alex

Okay, thats what i do ...
But this isn t a nice solution ....
And i hope it will work in future without
problems ...

Greetings Alex

You could of course - if you have enough disk space - install Office97 AND Office2000. Then you can compile your codeunit and use the two automation servers for programming.

And yet, another solution is to compile from a client that has Office97 installed. Navision will use the clients automation server to compile the database-codeunit !

I think you have to select the "Microsoft Word 8.0 Object Library" to have it right again. Office 2000 uses "Microsoft Word 9.0 Object Library". I guess wdApp is supposed to be a Word application?!
