Abstract

Do you like Microsoft?
Whether you like them or not, the fact is that most people are using Windows and Office products. These applications generally support the Microsoft COM (Component Object Model) Architecture. If we can have access to COM objects from Java, we can use any package that supports the COM architecture from Java, as if the Java application were a VB/VC++ application.
