com4j WebStart demo

The com4j WebStart demo is a straightforward Java application that demonstrates how to use com4j, a library that provides a way for Java programmers to invoke native Windows COM components. The demonstration showcases com4j's capabilities by using it to interact with Microsoft Excel.

The user interface of the demo consists of a menu bar and a large central area where commands can be entered and results displayed. The menu bar contains several options for loading and manipulating Excel documents, as well as options for configuring the demo's behavior.

Users can load an existing Excel document or create a new one, either from scratch or by cloning an existing document. Once a document is loaded, users can modify its content, add new sheets, or delete existing sheets.

Users may also execute various operations on the loaded document, such as searching for text or numerical values, replacing content, or summing cells. These operations are performed using com4j's capabilities to manipulate Excel through its COM interface.

The com4j WebStart demo is an excellent resource for any Java developer who needs to interact with native Windows components through COM. By demonstrating how com4j works in a real-world scenario, it provides guidance on how to use the library effectively.
