Error in DW.SaveAs() with type Excel12
If I call dw.SaveAs() to allow the user to pick the target and file type, and they pick any of the Excel12 options, the SaveAs returns -1 (failure) and doesn't save a file. This is in PB 11.5. I can't say this happens on all computers, but it does on the user's who reported it, and on my development machine (which is Windows XP, with Office 2007 installed). I also notice that Excel12 isn't even listed in PB 11.5 Help's list of SaveAsType values, or in the Object Browser, and the four Excel12 options are listed at the bottom of the dropdown for file type in the SaveAs() dialog box, which is weird, because all of the other options are in alphabetical order! I did finally find (in the PB General newsgroup, not here where it probably belonged) a reference to the Online Books section on required runtime files, where it says you need to include PBDWExcel12Interop115.dll and Sybase.PowerBuilder.DataWindow.Excel12.dll in your deployment for Excel 2007 (which is Excel12) support. So I copied those files to my application's directory, but the same thing is still happening. And I do have .NET 3.0 framework installed, which I understand is required. Any bright ideas? --------------------------- Dan Cooperstock DONATION web site: http://www.Software4Nonprofits.com DONATION Support forums: http://forums.Software4Nonprofits.com Email: mailto:info@Software4Nonprofits.com Phone: 416-423-7722

Excel12 support was introduced with 11.5.1, not 11.5. It is documented in the release bulletin; there were no documentation updates to go along with that new feature. That explains the absence in the documentation. When problems similar to this start appearing, that is often a sign that there are problems with the installation (often duplicate or missing DLLs). If this fails on a PC with the IDE, that leads me to believe that there might also be some sort of corruption. In addition, I would suggest that you create (and use) a new deployment package to see if that solves the problem. Note that Excel12 support is a specific option that must be selected when creating the package. I'm not certain if "installation" of the dependent .net components can be accomplished by simply copying some DLLs. I know the 2nd DLL should be in the GAC.

Hi Dan; Make sure that you are packaging the PB 11.5.1 run times and .NET DLL for the GAC instead of PB 11.5.0. BTW: What is the deployment machine's O/S vs your development system (are they the same)? Regards ... Chris President: OSUG / STD Inc.
