[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60098] [octave forge] (windows) Unable to skip optional arguments in COM method invocation

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #60098 (project octave):

FTR, out of curiosity I tried the code in Matlab r2020b:

>> srvr = actxserver('excel.application');
wbks = srvr.workbooks;

pth  = fullfile(pwd, 'a.xlsx');

if ~exist(pth, 'file')

  wbk = wbks.add;
  wbk.activate;
  wbk.saveAs( pth );
  wbk.close;

end
Check for missing argument or incorrect argument data type in call to function
'add'.
 
>> wbk = wbks.open( pth, 0, false );
Error using open
Too many input arguments.


... so the code itself doesn't seem completely right.
(Windows 10 & Office 2016, if it matters)
