HDR!!! Hayelp!!
Here's the thing - can I insert an excel sheet from the Components/Insertable Objects tab? I mean, add that to the toolbox, then draw the excel sheet on the form, then somehow manipulate that with the usual excel properties? I've been mucking around with the GetObject thing, but I can't get it working... aaaaarh, help me please (fades)
btw, I did have a look at the link you very kindly provided, but I'm not that hot with all the talk, couldn't really work out where I should start looking.
