Problems with the qutlook example (ActiveQt Examples)

[dexli]

Hi All,

I have to automate some tasks by using this M$ Office stuff. With perl and Win32::OLE it works more or less but I think it should be also possible with QT. To start I used the qutlook example from the ActiveQt Examples and nothing works like expected.

1.)

TYPELIBS = $$system(dumpcpp -getfile {00062FFF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046})

TYPELIBS = $$system(dumpcpp -getfile {00062FFF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046})

from the .pro file do not produce the needed msoutl.h and msoutl.cpp
I have to create them by my self using the output of the above by

dumpcpp.exe "C:\Programme\Microsoft Office\Office12\msoutl.olb" -o msoutl

dumpcpp.exe "C:\Programme\Microsoft Office\Office12\msoutl.olb" -o msoutl

2.) After that I get the error

From msoutl.h

// Referenced namespace
namespace Office {
    class Assistant;
    class COMAddIns;
    class LanguageSettings;
    class AnswerWizard;
    enum MsoFeatureInstall; <----- this is the bad guy 
    class IAssistance;
    class CommandBars;
    class CommandBar;
}

Because I'm new to C++ I have not the slightes clue what is going wrong and what to do. I'm only looking for a simple way to aviod the use of VBA.

After writing this text I found a suggestion to work arround here [WIKI]http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/8811-Can-t-compile-the-Qutlook-example[/WIKI] but the resulting program crashes
