Hi All,

I hope you are doing well. Your previous help concerning the details of 
connecting GLPK/MathProg to Access worked greatly.

Now, do you mind writing me (and all users) detailed instructions and an 
example of how to connect it to Excel (either through that csv or dbf, or 
whatever) in order to be able to get data from Excel and send variable values 
back there?

I use GLPK_4_41.dll and glpsol.exe.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Best,

Aly

Aly,

I suppose you have downloaded the glpk-4.42 tarball and GUSEK IDE for
GLPK/GMLP (MathProg). If not yet. I think you should download it.

http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glpk/

http://sourceforge.net/projects/gusek/

Are you into programming  C/C++, python, java, etc. using GLPK API
thru library (*.dll) to create your model, or more into modelling?

For modelling, use MathProg (GMPL) with GUSEK IDE. MathProg supports
to csv, dbf and sql tables. Have a look at the examples in glpk-4.42
tarball especially csv, dbf and sql.

You can easily create csv and dbf tables using Excel.  For Access, you
can SQL using ODBC connection.
