Hi nobbe,

I have just tried your example and it does not seem to work with OpenOffice 3.0.

I get the following error:

file:///test.doc

C:\openoffice_test.au3 (160) : ==> The requested action with this object has failed.:

$OO_Doc = $OO_Desktop.loadComponentFromURL($infile, "_blank", 0, $inputargs)

$OO_Doc = $OO_Desktop.loadComponentFromURL($infile, "_blank", 0, $inputargs)^ ERROR

Do you have any idea why this may be failing, other than the fact that I am using OpenOffice 3.0?

Cheers,

Angel
