It normally does fine with xls and xlsx. Today I have a customer that has Office 2010 installed and it does not work. It returns a -1 which doesn't tell me much. Do I need to change the connection string for 2010? -- Jeff Jeff Johnson [email protected] (623) 582-0323 Please reply to [email protected]!
