Hi Guillaume,

We have had the same problem with Report Writer reports and Office Integration.

I found the following notes:

- 159499 u2013 look at point 13

- 176642

They basically say that this can not be done due to OLE2.0.

We found the following link:

They are talking about opening multiple Excel windows (or processes in task manager). This works if we run Excel by itself but it does not work if we open Excel via OLE (ie SAP Report Writer).
