Handling objects embedded with OLE

Hi. Can Pega Robotics recognize objects embedded with OLE? That is, can Pega Robotics' adapters and translators work properly for the embedded objects with OLE?

One of our prospects is asking this. Any opinions?

Thanks,
Moritaka Kanai

Hi. We've got the additional information from the prospect.

They need to use OLE in Excel operations.
I think our standard Excel connector cannot do this.

Can it be possible to do that with specifying an Excel file as a Windows application with, say, setting HookChildProcess to true?

Thanks,
Moritaka Kanai

Pega Robotics does not currently support interrogating Office applications. You will need to perform this functionality using C# or perhaps a macro within Excel can do what you need.
