.NET Forum / ASP.NET / Web Services / December 2004Microsoft webswervices : Office
Hi all, I have couple of questions on MS Webservices : Do they have some published webservices : Like a webservice to convert an excel or .mpp into xml ? If yes where to locate them and how to call them ? If no what can be a possible solution to implement private webservice to do this work ? Any assitence on this will be greatly appreciated. Thanks and cheers, Sonia. No, there are no such published services. You can write them yourself pretty easily by putting a copy of Office on a server and writing a Web service that accesses Excel's automation interfaces through the interop assemblies that get installed with Office when you select the .NET Programming [0] on the installer. There may be some concurrency issues you may have to manage [1], I am not sure if Excel has those particular problems.

Hallo Christoph, Thanks for the info. My task is to write a webservice to convert .mpp - xml and viceversa using inbuilt functionality for this conversion. Do I need an installation of MS Project on the server - I guess so ? What all things I should ensure for Logon/security and also licensing ? Thanks and cheers, Amit. > No, there are no such published services.
