I am wondering why I can't find any plug-ins to integrate MS Office in the
Eclipse platform in the same way that it has been done for Open Office.
Does anybody have any opinion on this topic? (Why isn't there yet
integration plug-ins for the MS Office suite?)
I tried to look in the archives where I could find some hints about using
the SWT OLE framework to interface with microsoft applications, and tried
to do it for myself but couldn't achieve much (I'm a beginner with
Eclipse). I am particularly interested in getting Excel to run on the
Eclipse platform.
I also saw that other users were also having various kind of trouble
trying to make office applications run properly with the OLE framework. So
I was speculating that no plugins were developped yet because the SWT OLE
solution wasn't fully functional yet. Is this the case? Or was it simply
because nobody was interested enough in developing such a plug-in?
Thanks in advance for any tips or answers on this question

Thanks for your answer.
What I am trying is to use Excel's GUI to input data to my own Eclipse
plug-in.
I would also like to be able to use the XML exporting functions of Excel,
but I don't know how to make the File menu work when using Excel with SWT.
It seems that this menu is also disabled when opening an .xls file from
withing Eclipse. Is there any way to re-activate it?
