Dear experts,

Is it possible to get return value from a word's function that called by AX?

static void Job42(Args _args)
{
    COM         WordApp;  
    COM         WordDocuments;
    
    real        total;
    
    WordApp             = new COM("word.application");
    WordDocuments       = WordApp.Documents();
    WordDocuments.Open(@'C:\Demo.docm');
    WordApp.visible(true);
    
    WordApp.Run('demoCalculator', 4, 4);
    //WordApp.Run('main');
}


Word function: 

Public Function demoCalculator(x As Variant, y As Variant) As Integer

demoCalculator = CInt(x) + CInt(y)

End Function

Regards.

    Is it really about the current version of AX (= Dynamics 365 for Operations)?

    Sorry for wrong tag. Actually we are working on AX 2012.

    I think that WordApp.Run() should return the value. Did you try it? If so, what happened?
