OWC Manual

[PO]

Hi!

I'm new to using OWC components in web applications. Does anybody know where
I can get a complete reference to programming with OWC components
(especially OWC Spreadsheet) or a decent website with example code.
Preferably a manual for downloading from the internet.

Regards
PO

Don't waste your $ on "Professional ASP Programming Guide for Office Web
Component". "Programming Office 2000 Web Components" isn't bad but is
dated.

Alvin has a web site that has a number of interesting articles and I hear he
may be writing a book.

Hi all, until now I've used OWC normally, but after I've reinstalled my web
dev environment (Windows 2000 Pro +IIS 5 + Office 2000 Pro + Frontpage 2000)
on a standalone system, they don't work any more.
E.G. each time I try to insert a pivot table/spreadsheet/chart in a
Frontpage generated web page, a box warns me to download OWC, and I choose
yes, but the result is as follows:
"The installer is unable to copy a file from a remote server. This could be
caused by network problems or because an older copy of the file is in use on
your computer. Installation failed"
What does it mean?
Then I've deleted MSOWC.CAB, but the problem remains. Since this is a
standalone system, I don' understand what network problems can I have. I've
noticed also that data access pages don't work now.
I'm seeking for a suggestion about installig adn/or downloading Office 2000
web compoents in the right way.
Thanks in advance.
