Excel automation problem

[sanulevan 0]

Hi,

i use the code for excel automation

#include<Excel.au3>

$oExcel = ObjCreate("Excel.Application")

Opt("MustDeclareVars",0)

$oExcel.Visible = 1

$oExcel.WorkBooks.Add

$oExcel.ActiveWorkBook.ActiveSheet.Cells(1,1).Value="test"

sleep(4000)

$oExcel.ActiveWorkBook.Saved = 1

$oExcel.Quit

But it shows an error

Variable must be of type "Object".:

$oExcel.Visible = 1

$oExcel^ ERROR

please give a solution

Did you check whether $oExcel is an object or not. I think this error happen because $oExcel is not an object. ( ObjCreate("Excel.Application") fail ). make sure that you have installed Microsoft Excel.

Please add an COM error handler to your script. See ObjEvent for an example:

$oMyError = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error","MyErrFunc")    ; Initialize a COM error handler

; Your code goes here

Exit

; This is my custom defined error handler
Func MyErrFunc()

  Msgbox(0,"AutoItCOM Test","We intercepted a COM Error !"   & @CRLF  & @CRLF & _
             "err.description is: " & @TAB & $oMyError.description  & @CRLF & _
             "err.windescription:"  & @TAB & $oMyError.windescription & @CRLF & _
             "err.number is: "      & @TAB & hex($oMyError.number,8)  & @CRLF & _
             "err.lastdllerror is: "   & @TAB & $oMyError.lastdllerror   & @CRLF & _
             "err.scriptline is: "  & @TAB & $oMyError.scriptline   & @CRLF & _
             "err.source is: "      & @TAB & $oMyError.source       & @CRLF & _
             "err.helpfile is: "      & @TAB & $oMyError.helpfile     & @CRLF & _
             "err.helpcontext is: " & @TAB & $oMyError.helpcontext _
            )
