Hello,

I dunno if this will be any of help (you did not specify which tools you want to use...)

Anyway as described in MSDN:

h tt p://msdn DOT microsoft DOT com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/security/antivirus/overview/overview.asp

the msova.h is what you need.

Scan method is described here:

h tt p://msdn DOT microsoft DOT com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/security/antivirus/reference/ifaces/iofficeantivirus/iofficeantivirus.asp

I tried something similar but with Borland (Delphi) tool. here is what I've found here:

this link will not work - session expired error - go to www tamaracka com and search for IOfficeAntiVirus in Borland newsgroup...check for thread Anti Virus API, problem using IOfficeAntiVirus]

hope it helps...
