Dolphin evaluate Macro for Office ?

Ingo Blank
Hi,

yesterday I posted to a NewsGroup and included some ST sample code.
(I.e. *typed it in*  in Outlook...)

Later I discovered, that I forgot a line, so that it won't run.
A little embarassing IMO.

Then I remembered a Word macro, that I had years ago in conjunction with
ST V/Win. As far as I can remember, it was DDE based, however.

Now my question: Would it be possible to write some similar thing for
Dolphin ? It would be great to have the opportunity to evaluate an
expression
right there in Outlook.

Unfortunately(?) I'm not 'king' in M$ Office programming...

Bye
Ingo

Certainly it could be done. You'd need to build a COM server in Dolphin
which simply exposed the ability to compile and run expressions. Then you'd
need to write a bit of VBScript to invoke the Dolphin expression server.
