Kind of goes against the microsoft ethos doesnt it. I am sure it wont be easy.

Im not looking for simple solutions... just a solution...

I know that OpenOffice have an SDK but it shurelly is in CORBA...
If anyone ever did some sort of wrapper or have any idea to "shoot" Im looking foward to it...

Thanks!

http://api.openoffice.org/docs/DevelopersGuide/FirstSteps/FirstSteps.htm seems to indicate that you can use COM to access Open Office.

Damn! This is an extensive guide... Thanks!

Im just thinking here...
Could it be more productive to build an assembly in C++ that would interact with UNO and then make a wrapper to make it a .net managed control or try to directly connect with UNO?

Any idea?
