hi
In my organization we have some applications built with oracle forms
which generate .doc and .xls documents, as we are migrating to
LibreOffice we are trying to remove the office suite from the pc's but
the users with these applications can't make the switch.
the problem is that oracle forms generates the documents in the client
using ole2 calls
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_Linking_and_Embedding) to the
office suite through a component called webutil
(http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/webutil-090641.html)
ole2 is well supported by libreoffice so in theory the connection from
oracle forms to libreoffice through webutil is possible:

the problem is that it seems that the webutil component was developed
only with the microsoft office suite in mindand there is not guarantee
to it functioning well with other suites:
http://forums.oracle.com/message/4190690#4190690
has anybody faced this problem before? is possible to make libreoffice
work with webutil or there is another similar component already
developed with the same funcionality?
thanks
