Hello,
One of the alternatives to integrate with Office is the use of the
COM interface. There is an implementation in
https://github.com/tesonep/pharo-com. In the test package, there are
examples to integrate with Word, Excell, Internet Explorer, and

Pablo - Thanks for this. Just one bit of news. While I was waiting, I opened a
new Pharo 8 image, installed Pharo-Com 9the right one!) and tried to run some
of your tests. The Word test started to work, then stopped saying 'test took
