Hi Fredrik, I appreciate your helping and detailed explanation for my questions. I have read the BLOG, which is very helpful.
BTW, do you have blog? Thank you! 谢谢 :-) Best wishes, Hong Zhang Hong Beijing Redflag Chinese 2000 Software CO.,LTD Email:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-04-21 发件人： Fredrik Haegg 发送时间： 2008-04-18 20:54:01 收件人： [email protected] 抄送： 主题： Re: [qa-dev] [Automation]Filters Hi Hong, 1. In the Office, we talk about "input and output Filters". Because the Office Works with ODF as a file-format. But if you want to save your file in a Microsoft-format, you will have to use a filter to save the information in the right way for the file to be readable by a Microsoft Office. With other words, when you open a file, a Filter is used to read / translate the data into the Office. And when you save the file, a Filter is also used to save it into the type of file you want to save. (ODF, PDF, DOC, PPT, XML, HTML etc) 2. For Automatic Testers, this is important when we want to test if the office loads and saves the files as it should (with the right filter). The problem with Filternames, is that they are called different things in different languages, and the OpenOffice.org -filters all starts with "OpenOffice.org 3.0" while the StarSuite -filters all start with "StarSuite" etc. Since DEV300 the Filternames are retrieved from the API automatically. ( http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/qa_automation_filter_names_for ) So you don't have to bother with those. However, you might have to create the OLE Object names manually.
