Thanks for all replies so far. I didn't find anything in AppData.
I think I'd better reinstall J anyway - so far, I've been using the
32-bit version copied over from my old machine. So there might_ be some
conflict with the newly installed (presumably 64-bit) Open Office!
FWIW, here's the version stuff:
JVERSION
Engine: j701/2011-02-23/15:25
Library: 8.01.012
Qt IDE: 1.0.11
Platform: Win 32 <<< inferred from J.exe type?
Installer: j801 beta install
InstallPath: d:/j801
I'll let you know of any developments after installing 64-bit J, if
they're interesting.
Thanks again
Mike

wdooo is supposed to work for both 32 and 64 bit, if it doesn't then it's a
bug. Please provide detail of your config and procedure to reproduce the bug,
thanks.

I suspect Bill Lam and/or Ric Sherlock are the people are the people to ask
here, and but I'll ask the forum as a whole anyway:
I've just acquired a new laptop and am enjoying learning 64-bit Windows 8. I'm
loth to pay big pounds for Office 2010 or whatever. My 32-bit Windows 7 still
supported my old Office 2003 but that doesn't run in Win 8. I've downloaded
Open Office which seems to be well thought of as an alternative to M/S Office.
I wonder how to continue do the following, which worked under Windows 7
I have a multi-worksheet xls file.
My J application successfully reads one small named worksheet, not the first,
using readexcel .
It uses that information and wished to modify the contents of that worksheet
ONLY.
Under Windows 7 it successfully called wdoowrite to do this.
However, I find the workbook is not updated on the new machine.
I had used wdoowrite rather than writexlsheets as it appears that the latter
overwrites the whole file, but I might have misunderstood it.
It looks as if writeshtdat might do the job, but I'm not sure what locale info
to offer as the x argument.
Advice would be welcome!
Thanks
Mike
