MSOffice C++ API

[Nosferatu]

Can anybody point me to some (or the) Office C++ API?
What I need to do is create automatically some MSWord files and I cannot find an C API for doing that, only VB - I HATE VB!.

I do have the Doc file format, but it's a pretty scaring stuff to deal with.

Thank you! [red]Nosferatu[/red]

You can use Office with your C++ by using automation.
By doing this you can add for example mswordx.olb wich will give you all the functions you want to use winword.
in mswordx.olb x designs the version of your office(9 for office 2000)
For exel you have exelx.olb and so on.

There are a few steps you may need to take to do this as well. You might need to declare a namespace. MSDN has a topic on this.
