I would say no on this one. Office is just barely starting to be able to run on Linux, which would be Solaris's redheaded stepson cousin. Maybe if they can get it to run on Linux it could work on Solaris one day. Then to be able to use com objects, I don't know about that. That may be some wishful thinking, I don't know how wine would be wrapping up Office to run. If I were you I would just save the files in a format that can be opened in those programs.

I'm wondering if it's possible to do exports to Excel, Word, etc. on Solaris? I know that Office has to be installed on the server to do this kind of stuff, but do COM objects, etc. work on Solaris? Is there an Office for Solaris to begin with? I don't know much about Solaris, and I've searched CFComet with no luck on the issue. If you can't use Office, are there alternatives for a Solaris environment? I currently export to excel by giving an html file and xls extension, but I need more functionality (i.e., sorting columns, datatypes, etc.) than that trick provides. Thanks in advance, Dave. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx ______________________________________________________________________ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
