FlexPro can be used via (OLE) Automation. So you may write a program in a language supporting this inter-process communication mechanism (like Visual Basic, Delphi, C# and C++) to control it. One can start FlexPro, load a project database, generate datasets, trigger calculation of formulas, update diagrams, and so on. The object model is described in the Online help in chapter [i]Automating Processes > Automating Using FlexPro Visual Basic[/i]. The type libraries (for referencing from e.g. Visual Studio) can be found in the installation folder.
Since there is some skill in programming necessary for a task like this, there are no examples provided with the installation. One can find source codes for the limited control of FlexPro via the FPAccess interface using the same techniques. FPAccess is described in chapter [i]Automating Processes > Additional Options > Remote-Controlling FlexPro via FPAccess[/i].
