[cw-discuss] CrossOver support for .NET

[Timothy]

Specifically, I'm talking about generating Excel spreadsheets 
programatically, not manually, with a data file and an external program. 
I do that now on Windows with VB, but I've also used C# .NET on Windows 
for opening Outlook, opening email, deleting email, etc. for testing 
purposes, all under program control, so I know that C# .NET would work 
to generate spreadsheets ... on Windows. So far, I've not been 
successful getting my VB scripts (developed on Windows) to run under 
CrossOver, which would be useful, too.

Currently, I've been experimenting with Jexelapi, but not all Excel 
functionality is supported, including functionality I need. I've also 
not have much luck with PyWin32 on CrossOver. So, bottom line, if you're 
getting .NET working on CrossOver, there may be hope for programmatic 
Excel spreadsheet generation.
