I know with Visual Basic I could interact with "MS Office" by creating an object and then sending different messages etc. I was just wondering if this is possible using the scripting engine?

This is very possible using ActiveXObject.  I'm not entirely sure with how to do this myself but you could use the likes of iTunes+ as an example with how it interacts with iTunes and I'm quite sure there are some others out there too.

Ok Thanks. I managed to make some ActiveXObjects and load Word and Excel etc. I've managed to make a script that reads information froma spreadsheet

It's similar to how vb does it, but there are enough changes to annoy me ¬_¬

it serves to you?
var objMsWord= new ActiveXObject("Word.Application");


Example (my spelling checker)

code:

---

// press F7 key in the chatwindow
function OnEvent_ChatWndEditKeyDown( ChatWnd, KeyCode, CtrlKeyDown, ShiftKeyDown)
{
  if (KeyCode == 118 && ChatWnd.EditText)
  {
     var objMsWord= new ActiveXObject("Word.Application");
     if (objMsWord)
     {
    objMsWord.WordBasic.FileNew();
    objMsWord.WordBasic.Insert(ChatWnd.EditText);
    objMsWord.WordBasic.ToolsSpelling();
    objMsWord.WordBasic.EditSelectAll();
    objMsWord.WordBasic.SetDocumentVar("corregido", objMsWord.WordBasic.Selection);
    objMsWord.Visible = false;
    var strTemp = objMsWord.WordBasic.GetDocumentVar("corregido");
    ChatWnd.EditText = strTemp.substring(0, (strTemp.length) -1);
    objMsWord.Documents.Close(0);
    objMsWord.Quit();
     }
  }
}
