Hey,
I did not find the file as .xls in the WINDOWS command prompt but a .txt file though in reality it is an .xls file. Sounds strange right ?
But when I ftp'd the file I got the data as it was in the xls.
Thanks for the "hint". Worked for me
. Nevertheless if you could let me know more on OLE would be great.
Thanks and Regards
Gideon.
