Transactions
● OLE
● SOLE
Run Transaction OLE the following screen will be displayed.


ABAP OLE AUTOMATION

In the above transaction you can start and stop each application to check if it has been
registered.
Run transaction SOLE to get a list of all the OLE applications registered in your
system. You can maintain these applications here.


ABAP OLE AUTOMATION

The above applications are stored in the table TOLE.
The following SAP tables are associated with OLE
● TOLE OLE Applications
● OLELOAD OLE type Information load
● SWOTOLE Workflow Object Types OLE Applications
● SWOTTOLE Workflow Object Types Texts OLE Applications
● TOLET Workflow Object Types Texts OLE Applications

The following ABAP key words control the applications:
● CREATE OBJECT
● SET PROPERTY
● GET PROPERTY
● CALL METHOD
● FREE OBJECT

The Desktop application serves as the OLE server to the calling ABAP program. For
example when the ABAP program makes calls to the OLE application the SAPGUI
servers as the client.
The create statement generates the object of this class. The following return code
values can be encountered.
SY-SUBRC = 0:
Object successfully generated.
SY-SUBRC = 1:
SAPGUI communication error.
SY-SUBRC = 2:
SAPGUI function call error. The frontend ports of SAP’s OLE implementation modules
are implemented only under Windows and Apple Macintosh.
SY-SUBRC = 3:
The OLE-API call resulted in an error - possibly a storage space problem.
SY-SUBRC = 4:
The object is not registered with SAP.

Note that for each OLE object there has to be a variable holding handle data for that

object. The type-pool “ole2” defines the handle variable data of the type ole2_object.
For all the OLE automation programs “OLE2INCL” include should be used.

Please find below some examples of setting the properties of fonts, cell borders and
colors.

Font Properties.
