If you're going to the Excel manipulation server-side then this is probably a good bet:
http://jexcelapi.sourceforge.net/ You will need to install the relevant jars on to your server, update your java classpath in cfadminstrator and then call with cfobject. After that it should be a simple case of accessing the methods as per the jexcelapi docs. I have a good look at this for copying some data into an Excel template (preconfigured with macros, cell protection etc and some formulas for assisting data manipulation) and it seems just the job, but I haven't done any actual coding yet.

You seem to be asking about client-side interaction, but it helps to confirm because the solutions are different. -Mike Chabot On 10/28/07, Richard White <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > we noticed that Mozilla Firefox doesnt allow vbscript to run due to the security issues.
