- I am trying to launch the application Excel 4.0 and open an Exel document
- from a 'C' program (either MPW or Think C) using System 7 on the Macintosh.
-
- I am able to launch Excel via sending the apple event 'oapp', however have
- been unsuccessful opening a document sending the 'odoc' apple event to
- Excel.
-
- I attempted to use the LaunchApplication system call and also apple event
- system calls with no success.
-
- Can anyone offer any help/suggestions/code that would help me figure
- out how to do this?
-
- Thanks!
