Anybody knows whether the "Save as Acrobat" in Excel can be remote-controlled?

Acrobat and Excel have an equivalent feature, at least on Windows: The ability of an outside application, via COM, to execute internal {Acrobat, Excel} commands.
I would like to tell Excel: "Save this spreadsheet as PDF" from my app.
Does anyone have experience with that?
TIA,
-Ramon
ps: Yes, I am going to ask this in some Excel group as well, but here everybody is programmer.

Well, well, well.. I am pleasantly surprised:
This problem seems to be a lot easier than I expected. There is a "Save as PDF" function. The only catch is that it is implemented in C#

  • I need to erase the contents of my phone and restore to factory settings. Does anybody know how to save your texts so you don't lose them?  Can I back those up to iCloud?  My phone was very likely hacked (Apple's advice was to call the police!)

    "I need to erase the contents of my phone and restore to factory settings. Does anybody know how to save your texts so you don't lose them?  Can I back those up to iCloud?  My phone was very likely hacked (Apple's advice was to call the police!)"
    That was all I could put in the initial "box."  Then it brought me to this page with instructions on how to write a good sentence.
    Proceeding ...
    After going back and forth between Apple, AT&T and the police (all telling me to go to the other two) I took AT&Ts suggestion and got a new number. One tech warned against doing a backup, especially on my Mac, saying if my phone had been hacked then whatever bug was there would then invade my computer. But nobody knows how to determine if the phone has been hacked or a virus was planted there. Unfortunately I know who would have reason to do such a thing and all I can say is that he is at the top technologically and could easily do it. Almost impossible to prove, however.
    So I need to preserve my text messages and my emails as well. I backed up my photos to that Microsoft product (One-Drive) and it froze (Surprise, Surprise) with four short videos to go, and no way of stopping that (when I tried it crashed repeatedly) so I'm in crisis mode here.
    Help ...

    Thanks!

    Betty I don't know if you fixed your hacking problem but I feel your pain. I've seen some strange things going on between my iMac and my iPhone and Apple has told me the same thing, call the police which I have done. The hackers have stole 500.00 out of my checking account have access to every internet account I use and no matter how often I change the password their right back on the account. I closed my FB account 3 times only to have someone reopen it. Right now I've got a link in my reading list (Safari) that if I click on it, it allows me to log onto my FB account anonymously.
    I've seen a green folder come out of no where while I was trying to delete my passwords out of keychain when that green folder was put into the key chain I was immediately locked out. I than went into system preferences to try to make changes to my security settings, when I clicked on the icon it wouldn't open. I've seen log files of automator receiving commands and sending out my personal information thats on my computer.
    I have a legitamate program called iExplorer that allows you to look at the contents of your iPhone back ups and saw a transaction someone made at the Apple store for some full length movies, some albums, ibooks and other apps but when I called the iTunes store and they said none of those items were showing up on my account. If their not on my account how can they be on my iPhone 6? One day someone was using my gmail account and unknowingly used google maps to search for an Italian restaurant, than a Mexican restaurant than a coffee shop and their search showed up on my iPhone but I didn't have my gmail account installed on my iPhone 6. Using my computer I logged onto my gmail account and looked at the maps history and sure enough there were the searches when I'd hover my curser over the link it gave me the longitude and latitude of the where the hacker was when he was using google maps. I know whoever reads this thinks Im crazy but I've documented everything and can prove the things that I have mentioned in this post actually happened.
    One day I had my laptop (pc) and my iMac next to each other as I was using both. when I clicked on airport it showed that my laptop and my iMac had made a connection and were actually communicating with each other. I know I didn't do it I don't know how. The iMac was logged into my iCloud account while my laptop wasn't. I have formatted my iPhone at least a dozen times, Apple and an Apple retailer have formatted my hard drive not to mention the numerous times I have formatted it but the hackers keep getting on my devices. Im formatting my lap top at this very second because during the course of the night I left the ethernet cable plugged into it and they locked me out of my c: drive, and configured the system so I can't download any updates from Microsoft, overtime I type in www.microsoft.com it changes to ww38.microsoft.com which takes me to a blank page. I right clicked on the page I was redirected to and read the java script and couldn't believe that someone had actually configured Internet Explorer to redirect me to a blank page when I tried to go to Microsoft. Apples answer to all this is there was nothing wrong with my iPhone or my iMac and if I thought there was a problem to call the police which I have done.
    Theres no doubt the hackers are reading this while I type it or will read it and I simply don't care anymore. I no longer email anyone, don't use my iCloud account and have taken precautions to protect my credit but if I ever find out who has invaded my privacy to this extreme the police are going to want to talk to me because Im going to hurt them like they've never been hurt before

    OK, thanks
    but EULA ?? what does it stand for? I am pretty new to all this so good to learn something.
    ps. backgroud of my request is, that I purchased LR in a box in 2013. The computer where this is on, is at the end of its life and I have no LR box with License or any reference nr's anymore.
    Copied to my new Laptop, which maybe is not allowed if I understand you correct, it didn't work.
    Pitty, because afterall it is still my legally relatively recent purchased LR version.
    I thought to overcome this problem in future by putting it on my NAS. Safe for many years to come.
    again any knowlegeable feedback is welcome to me.

  • How to know whether the javascript is disabled or not while loading the jsp

    Hi,
    My query is like how to know whether the javascript is disabled or not while loading the Application main JSP in Mozilla browser.
    I want some Java code or JavaScript code.

    To the point, just let JS fire a specific HTTP request inside the same session.
    This can be done in several ways. 1) Create a hidden <img> element and set the `src` attribute so that it will request a (fake) image from the server. The server just have to intercept on this specific request. 2) Fire an ajaxical request and let the server intercept on it. You can use a Filter for this which sets a token in the session scope to inform that the client has JS enabled.

  • How to know whether the Content Type at Library level is Inheriting Parent Content type or not Using Powershell?

    Hi,
    How to know whether the Content Type at Library level is Inheriting Parent Content type or not using Powershell?
    Is there any property for that? Or Do I need to compare the Content type Id's at Site collection level and Library level?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,
    AA.

    Hi Ashok,
    For a content type, there is an attribute called Inherits, the value of this attribute determines whether the content type inherits fields from its parent content type when it is created.
    If Inherits is TRUE, the child content type inherits all fields that are in the parent, including fields that users have added.
    If Inherits is FALSE or absent and the parent content type is a built-in type, the child content type inherits only the fields that were in the parent content type when SharePoint Foundation was
    installed. The child content type does not have any fields that users have added to the parent content type.
    More information, please refer to the link:

  • How to know whether the current database is using a password file or not?

    How to know whether the current database is using a password file or not?

    The remote_password_file is the parameter that determines if you can use or not a password file. The values this parameter can have are NONE, SHARED, EXCLUSIVE. It is pretty obvious, if it is set to either SHARED or EXCLUSIVE the oracle instance has enabled the access through a password file for the SYSDBA and SYSOPER roles.

  • How to know whether the database is using SPFILE or PFILE

    How can i know whether the database is using SPFILE or PFILE.
    There are both initSID.ora and spfileSID.ora in default location.
    The registry entry for ORA_SID_PFILE is C:\oracle\ora90\database\initSID.ora
    Also, if it is using SPFILE than how can i modify the non dynamic parameters when the database is in the close state.
    Manu

    If you do not specify a path of a pfile , when you actually startup a database , then it will be use your pfile , if you specify a path explicitly fot a pfile , then it'll use your pfile.
    Also, if it is using SPFILE than how can i modify the non dynamic parameters when the database is in the close state.sql > create spfile from pfile ;
    the spfile will syncronise with pfile .

  • Thinkpad Yoga 14: How to know whether the model had separate trackpad buttons or not

    So Lenovo has released the 2015 version of the Thinkpad Yoga 14. In the online manual it says that some models do and others don't have separate trackpad buttons. How do you know whether the specific models offers do or don't?
    The images in Lenovo's online store show the Thinkpad Yoga 14 without the separate buttons...

    1. Delete all applications you got from the Mac App Store. Also delete any pirated copies of App Store products that you may have installed.
    2. Rebuild the Spotlight index as follows:
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Spotlight ▹ Privacy
    The list of items excluded from Spotlight indexing is shown (it may be empty.) Click the plus (“+”) icon to add an item to the list. Select your volume (under DEVICES) and add it to the list. Then remove it from the list by selecting it and clicking the minus (“-“) icon.
    Spotlight will rebuild the index. If you try to do a Spotlight search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, a pulsing dot will appear in the icon. When the dot disappears, the indexing is complete.
    3. Check that the Apple ID associated with your account in the Users & Groups preference pane is correct.
    4. Reinstall the applications you deleted by downloading them from the App Store.
