How to check from code in Excel Addin that Excel is embedded in Microsoft word

We've developed an Excel Addin in C# for Excel 2010 and it works perfectly OK. But one issue is reported very recently as below.
1. Microsoft word document is created with an embedded excel work sheet.
2. Save the document and close.
3. Open the word document and try to edit the work sheet there.
4. Following error comes.
"The program used to create this object is Excel. That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding.
To edit this object, install Excel or ensure that any dialog boxes in Excel are closed."
5. This is because, our Addin is initialized and one excel process is running.
6. If the Excel Addin is disabled, above work flow works correctly.
Please let me know how to determine from the Excel Addin that the excel worksheet is embedded in another applicatoin. Because I want to disable the Addin in those cases and enable it if the Excel is opened standalone. The Addin is developed in C#.

Hi,
Since the error message, please try to install this Hotfix test if it works:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2596494
Note: Delete the Excel instance running in the background(Go to your task manager and delete it) before opening your Word document and edit your embedded Excel.
If the issue still exists, please see the article and try the solution which I copied here:
"The basic simple answer is to place a Marshal.ComReleaseObject(Wb) at the end (or better, in the Finally block) of your event handlers. This will properly allow Word and excel to handle the OLE communication by not having VSTO hang on to an instance
handle of the workbook, therefore causing the error.
And this is not carte blanche to start placing ComReleaseObject() all over your code. I have found VERY VERY few limited cases where using ComReleaseObject() in an add-in necessary. And this is one of them."

How to check the code of spawned report

Hi All,
I've to modify a standard report from PA module.The report name is "PRC: Distribute Usage and Miscellaneous Costs"
The executable method is SPAWNED.The executable name is PASDUC.
Please let me know how to check the code of this report and in which path can I locate the report.
Regards,
Mahi.

Does this mean can I tell to my client that "This is being a spawned program, any customizations to this report needs full report development efforts"?I believe yes.
Before I state this to my client I want to verify with this forum. Please suggest me in either case.Would your client trust my reply on here :) ?
I would suggest you log a SR and confirm this with Oracle support, that would be a better proof.
Thanks,
Hussein

Hi Sree,
In RSA3 on the first screen, you have the option to start debugging by marking the debug check box, once you put all the selections, click on execute and it will go to debug mode, then keep on pressing F5. It will debug your code line by line, then you can check for all the select statements.
Or once the debugging is started you will have the option to put break point on all the select statements in one shot, you can get in touch with your ABAP team.

Durgesh.

Extension Builder 1.5 - how to quit from code

In EB 1.5 how can I quit my own extension from code?
Thanks for your help,
pjb

Hi mlavie,
I am glad to hear that you have evaluated CSExtension Builder and thinking to purchase it. There are two ways to do this.
The one is what Davide suggested above. You need to subscribe to the Adobe Enterprise Devloper Program at this link: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/aedp.html
The other option would be to purchase it once it becomes available on the Adobe Store. Until then, you are free to use the fully functional trial version. Check out the Trial FAQ here: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/developer/creativesuite/extension-builder/cs-extension- builder-trial-faq.pdf

How to check from Where a Program is Called in SAP ABAP?

In SAP subroutine message_append in program LATPCFM2 has been called for purchase order as well as delivery (create, change, display).
I want some custom code to be added in this subroutine by which I would know from where it is being called for "delivery creation".
Or any way to know the called place.

Hi Raju,
     I want to add one more thing to your explanation, While enhancing the standard Program, it will be used in several Places for Different purpose. Instead of Checking from Where it is Called, Check with for what conditions the Custom Code Should get executed and the Required Values are present in the attribute. It will work better if we add Some IF conditions Before Our Custom Code otherwie it may lead to Dump.
EX: If SY-Tocde = 'VA01' or SY-Tocde = 'VA02' or SY-Tocde = 'VA03'.
          Custome Code.
      endif.

How to check the code source of some function in the portal.

hi all.
i have some problem in the portal.
i use the ESS in the portal, and now some people can not check their salary.
i want to check the code source, but i do not know it uses which program.
can some one tell me the way to check the program.
best regards.

If you want to access the source code of any ESS component, you will need access to NWDI. NWDI NWDI = NetWeaver Development Infrastructure, it provide the tools and process to build new / modify existing applications built using NWDS. There are plenty of threads discussing how to set up NWDI, you may search for the same.
However if the payslip problem is only for some users, it could also be a pdf issue, have you tried running the payslip for those select users within ECC?

Just upgraded from Safari to Maverick, but pop-up informed me that Mav does not support Microsoft word or excel. What's up with that?

Just upgraded from Safari to Maverick, but pop-up informed me that Microsoft Word or Excel will not run on OS X Mavericks. What's up with that? Should I click accept or ok?
I assume this is the latest Mav OS...so the version would be 10.9.2? It was suppose to be a free download from Apple.

If you do not want to spend a lot of money on buying the latest Office you can get most or all of what you need from LibreOffice which is free. http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/

In coded ui how do you correctly retrieve a browser window that contains an embedded Adobe PDF reader in browser

I'am running across this issue when I'm debugging or running my coded UI automation project, where i get the exception labeled "{"COM object that has been separated from its underlying RCW cannot be used." System.Exception {System.Runtime.InteropServices.InvalidComObjectException}"
everytime i come from a browser window that contains a pdf reader embedded in it. This happens every time I retrieve the window and try to click back. It barfs when i perform the back method on it. I've tried different things but none has worked including
the playback wait.
var hereIsmypdf = ReturnPDFDoc();
public BrowserWindow ReturnPDFDoc()
Playback.Wait(1000);
var myPdFdoc = GlobalVariables.Browser;
return myPdFdoc;
hereIsmypdf.Back();
skinny_Will

Hi skinny_Will,
<<"{"COM object that has been separated from its underlying RCW cannot be used." System.Exception {System.Runtime.InteropServices.InvalidComObjectException
According this exception error message, I did some research about it. I know that this exception error is occurred in
COM object which was disposed if you are using the COM objects in a same static class or variables which ware shared between tests.
So please you refer the following blog to use ExecutionThread element to instruct the test to use the MTA threading model. This way, the static instance of "store" can be shared across tests.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/martijnh/archive/2009/12/31/unit-testing-com-object-that-has-been-separated-from-its-underlying-rcw-cannot-be-used.aspx
Note: if you are using the VS2013 to create the coded UI test, you will need to add a test setting file to add this
ExecutionThread.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee256991.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
In addition, ad you said that when you playback the browser window that contains an embedded Adobe PDF reader and then it could not work.
I suggest you could try to add more searchproperties to find this target control and then check this issue.
I find a similar thread about your issue, please refer the Steve's code to check your issue.

If you purchased your version of Office online, you can redownload it from Microsoft using your product key (I don't know why the link says "office2010"... but the link is for Office for Mac 2011):
https://www2.downloadoffice2010.microsoft.com/macdl/registerkey.aspx?ref=macdl&c ulture=en-US
They used to have a free 30 trial, but I don't seem to see that anywhere.
