Hi All

since a discussion of OLE has started:

I would like to automatically insert an equation object
(MathType Equation Editor, www.mathtype.com)
into a BB text so that the vertical offset of the formula
is preserved.

MathType and MS Word cooperate nicely: MT equation objects
seem to carry the necessary info which Word uses.
Would it be possible to have the same behavior in Blackbox?

Also:
What would be needed to cooperate with the MathType server
from within BlackBox?
A set of interface modules? What's needed to create those?

(I am sort of tired of Word: each new major version seems
to have bugs in the OLE support all over again,
plus BB would be more flexible in some respects.)

Thanks and best regards,
Fyodor Tkachov
