Hi Bruce, Thanks for all the input, will followup tomorrow.
Do you have Excel? It can be made to work with an Excel spreadsheet. Change the connect string to: mydb.Open(?"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source="++strdb++";Extended Properties=Excel 8.0") strdb would be the path to an .xls file qname can be ?"[Sheet1$]" The top row labels will be the field names Its supposed to also work with named ranges, but that doesn't seem to be working for me in a quick test. Also, real numbers don't seem to be working for field values. Regards, Sheri
