Title:
MS Office Automation with Thin Clients?
Hi:
I have an client\server application that needs to be migrated to the web. The system was years in the making and offers a lot of functionality and does a lot MS Office Automation. It also has its own mail client and a client side data store to house static data.
My orignial plan was to maintain the existing front end by doing a fat client web app using XML messaging and Web Services. Now they are saying it needs to be Thin client. I doubt whether an HTML interface can ever be as useful a full blown Windows app, espcially in this case. Also, can you do MS Office Automation from an app running in a browser?
Thanx,
Charlie
