We are also facing a similar issue and below is the error Hi, did you get a solution for the above issue. Unfortunately, I can't tell you how to do that.1- Try launching the application with elevated\admin rights.Ģ- Check on other user machines if the option is enabled for them (Can be a chance its your access level causing this).ģ- Pointing to the exact. You should then be able to create objects that use the object model. You just need to reference it in the VB Editor. Usually, the installation will provide that API. Short story: you need a VBA API for OutsideView in the same way as AttachMate. When you want to communicate with Reflection from another application, create a Reflection object and use Reflection's methods and properties in the other application's programming environment. Reflection's COM/Automation support is provided by Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) and Reflection's methods and properties. In this situation, Reflection is the object (or server) that is being manipulated by Word, which is the controller (or client).
You can use this API to send instructions to Reflection and extract host data.įor example, from Microsoft Word or Excel, you can launch a Reflection session, log onto a host, and copy screen data to the current document. Reflection’s COM API (previously known as Automation or OLE Automation) provides a way to control Reflection from other applications, such as Microsoft Office products or a Visual Basic project. I guess I'm feeling a little lost, and clearly I'm not an expert on this. Like can I just create an OutsideView System object and then start calling methods through it somehow? I'm worried that not being able to do that means I won't be able to automate like I could with Extra!, but seeing methods in the OutsideView API written in VBA makes me think there has to be a way to make this work. With Attachmate, you could reference the Extra! Dll directly. I'm trying to figure out how to use Declare Lib within the macro itself and reference the library, but I'm not sure if that's how I should go about it. In excel (through the menu) I tried to declare a reference to the DLL's associated with OutsideView, but it won't let me do that (Gives an error). I do have access to OutsideView API documentation, which talks about all the methods available, and gives examples of these methods in. I want to create a macro that takes lists of numbers from excel and then inputs them into the terminal and reads the result back into excel.Īt another job they used something similar to OutsideView called Attachmate, or Extra!, and there was a lot of documentation about how to automate that through excel. It's your basic blue screen with white letters. My company uses OutsideView, which I think is just a terminal emulator, letting us access a database.
