Hi all,
I need to program an excel add-in that convert from wordperfect file into a
Table within Excel, I don't know where to start at this point. I do have a
clsFileDialog, but don't know how to use in VBA.

Or Is there an Add-in to Excel, or a Cheap Programme (preferably Free) that
will
let me convert from wordperfect file into a Table within Excel.

Thanks for any help that you can give

Can't you just <copy> the table in WordPerfect, then select Excel and
<paste> the file into the worksheet?

Yes, but you have to go thru several steps like copy to clipboard,
paste to notebook, save as .txt or.cvs then open excel, use file//open
to open file, then in the text import wizard, set text, date... etc...
I mean you have do to it manually. but I'm looking for excel add-in
that will help me cut down the processes. Like just open excel and
click on wordperfect document then open to excel.
 
Sorry, I don't understand this. I have WordPerfect9, Excel 2000 and Win
XP. I've just set up a simple 4-row 3-column table in WP with mixed
text and numbers. I highlighted the table, clicked <copy>, clicked over
to the Excel window in cell A1, and clicked <paste>. The table was
transfered no problem.

Are you using an earlier version of WordPerfect?

Hi Peter,

Thanks for reply,
the documents are in wordperfect8/9 version. I doesn't work the way you
said, just copy and paste.

Anyway, my manager want an Excel Add-In, that programming with Visual Bacis
code which will do the job automately, not manually like you and I trying
right now.

Thnx

AQ,
Apparently, one of WordPerfect 9 Features is:
"Visual Basic for Applications Integration--lets you develop VBA
applications to control WordPerfect 9 through the OLE Automation Type
Library. The main object exposed by WordPerfect 9 is the PerfectScript
object, which consists of all the functions currently available in the
PerfectScript language,..."

I assume you have WordPerfect 9. Unlike me.
