hi all,   While searching the internet , i found at least prominent ways by which 
people are accessing contents of Excel files. I am using ASP.net / C#. I wrote ( 
pasted from the internet net mostly  ) code for three alternatives            A)  
using Automation           ---------------------          My comments :-  Slow , Excel 
should be installed on my app server  (?)                     B) ODBC            
----------          Can be run on machines which does not have excel application . 
Good.            C) using OleDb Provider. ( Jet engine )          
-----------------------------------------           This method seems to be the most 
comfortable to code, executes fast etc.   Anybody there who has retrieved Excel files 
programmatically from ASP.net ? Which method seems to be the most robust ? ( i prefer 
the third one ).   When i searched some virgin ( without .NET run time and Office app 
) machines,i found JET oledb provider in all the machines.    Our users will use only 
latest version of the office suite. Asking them to save spreadsheat in excel 97 or 
2000 is not going to work. Will OleDb provider for  excel will isolate us from version 
changes ? (not thru service packs ).  Is  jet oledb provider a redistributable with 
every version of win2k or winxp ?                                                      
                                  Praseed Pai.
