Hi,
In the Octave-3.2.0_i686-pc-mingw32_gcc-4.3.0_setup.exe package, the
following doesn't work:
===================<screen copy:>===================================
octave-3.2.0.exe:1> excelapp = actxserver ("Excel.Application")
excelapp =
<COM object _Application (0x0x269e9c)>
octave-3.2.0.exe:2> wb = excelapp.Workbooks.Add ()
error: can't perform indexing operations for octave_com_object type
octave-3.2.0.exe:3>
===================</screen copy>====================================
These commands work OK on the same PC in the (deprecated, yes I know)
octave-3.0.3VC package (that I still have installed).
Trying out some more COM commands shows that starting the ActiveX server
goes OK, but AFAICS any subsequent COM command fails with:
error: can't perform indexing operations for octave_com_object type
BTW I'm writing some basic xlsread/xlswrite-like .m files for Excel R/W
based on Michael Goffioul's example (I'll call them xls2oct.m &
oct2xls.m unless someone has better suggestions.)
I need to build in some more error checking before I can submit them.
My system (if this info is needed at all):
Intel DG43NB mobo, Intel Core Duo 2,5 Ghz, Windows XP SP3, 2GB RAM
Thanks,
Philip Nienhuis
