Hi Eric.
You can try do it trough DDE comunication.
Put into your mapbasic application or in mapbasic window following code:
dim a as Integer 
dim ss as string
a = DDEInitiate( "Excel" , "System" ) 
ss = DDERequest$(a, "topics")
print ss
The Excel program must be executed before code run.
I hope this will help you.
Regards Stefan.
