The odd thing is that if the spreadsheet is open when I call the write routine, I see the cells being changed, but the changes are never saved. Maybe someone else can figure out that final step. Anyway, hope this is useful to someone. 1203548558_49_FT0_excelado.zip Eric Pankoke Founder Point Of Light Software http://www.polsoftware.com/ | ||

I thought they would be with PPL when it installed | ||

It's possible that they might get installed with their respective programs (Access, Excel, etc.), but I don't know that for a certainty. To get the ADO install, go to http://msdn.microsoft.com and search for MDAC Install. Here's a direct link: MDAC Install, but of course the way they reorganize it could be gone by tomorrow.
