I seem to recall this being in the help at some point but I can't tell you which version of VFP and I only have 9 installed on my system now. IAC, it doesn't seem to make much difference which Excel extension you use. You still end up with an Excel file circa 1995 which is why I typically stick to XLS if I'm not using automation. I did learn of a nice workaround for the Excel rows limitation from a new boss in Indy this past week: If you're using the version of Excel where it tops out at 16384 rows, save it as Fox2X and then just open the DBF from inside Excel. Sounded like a neat trick. -- Mike Babcock, MCP MB Software Solutions, LLC President, Chief Software Architect http://mbsoftwaresolutions.com http://fabmate.com http://twitter.com/mbabcock16 --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
