EXCEL & C++: Integration in Visual Studio 2012
Hi!
I need to get this work done soon. I found a legacy code to integrate C++ (in VS '05) with EXCEL 2003, to generate graphs. I need to get this working in Visual Studio 2012 with EXCEL 2010 soon. The code is showing errors in header files among other syntax errors. I need to know how I can work around this. It's consumed more than a month of my time!
Somebody please help!

Where did you find it?
A website URL would be fantastic at this point.

Patient (on the phone): Help, it hurts!
Doctor: What hurts?
Patient: This pain I've got hurts!
Doctor: Where exactly?
Patient: (points to some random body part, but being on the phone, fails to convey any actual information).

Or your employers?

If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
legacy code from vs5 to integrate excel2003 that is required for vs12 excel 2010 is a very ropey proposition from the get go.

Check the xlsx format, which is simply an open xml file which is easy to parse with lots of libs around (use winrar,winzip, or 7zip to open file)
Ahhh... And completely agree with Salem
Instead of trying to hack into Excel, you should just familiarize yourself with how Excel stores graphs, and write a program that will create the proper file.
It is too clear and so it is hard to see.
