Does anyone know how i can make the datawindow saveas functionality creates the excel file with the Program Name populated with Microsoft Excel?
I'm saving my dw data to excel file and wants to use Syncfusion to open and manipulate the file as needed, but Syncfusion is failing to open it because the "Program Name" attribute is not populated. I tested these files and confirmed that the only difference between the two is the Program Name missing from the dw save as generated file.
i did some research if there is an easy way to change the file properties and found out that i have to use DSOFILE.DLL to do it. I'm trying to avoid adding another dll to our app thus asking this question if anyone knows any PB function, config change or setup that might help or any other to do it without adding another DLL.
thanks,
Cathy
