complicated problem..

[nitm]

hi,

this is truly a complicated problem (as i see it, i hope i'm wrong).
i'm writing an application that will be distributed to my clients.

once installed, the users can open word documents via the application.
the word documents can be of any version (2007 or less) but the application
have to transform the documents (that are not 2007) to docx so it will be
able to work with open xml.
for the transformation process i have the ofc.exe utility so that's taken
care of.

now for the problem: i want to open word 2007 inside my application
(embedded) even if the user dont have word 2007 installed on his/her
machine...
now, i understand that the way to embed word inside my application is done
with the DSOFramer which act kind of funny (buttons dont appear until i hover
them with the mouse cursor) but that's not the main problem..
is it possible to run word 2007 on a machine that doesnt have it?

i hope that i managed to explain myself and my problem...

thanks a lot, nitzan.

Hello,

is it possible to run word 2007 on a machine that doesn't have it?

This is impossible. To use any thing, you have to access the thing first.
