Thanks again to everyone for the extensive replies on this Thread. Alan - your suggestion DOES Sound really easy. But, this M$ Component you speak of - I understand its Free - but, I need to actually download & Install it to use it? And, I will have to install it at client on their PC's as well???

Handles all types of Excel files via OLE DB: This.SQLHandle = SqlStringConnect("Driver={Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls, *.xlsx, *.xlsm, *.xlsb)};" ; +"DBQ=" + FullPath(lcFile)+";") ... where lcFile is your Excel workbook. then: lcSelect=[SELECT Date,Account,Name,Ref1,Value,Lodgement FROM "Sheet1$"] lnResult = SQLEXEC(This.SQLHandle, lcSelect, "_stage1_") That gets you a cursor called '_stage1_' with the contents of Sheet 1 in the workbook. Don't really see any easier options to be honest.
