    • Excel is basically treated as a database (it actually DOES have access databases running the show behind the spreadsheets and charts). Therefore you need to use an JDBC call. Do a search in the JDBC forum to find the syntax.

    • If you know how to contact it's COM interface you can easily then call it's methods. I have done it in vb easily with Java never had a chance.

    • Check out formula one product. http://www.tidestone.com.

      They claim to provide (97%) of Excel functionality in their Java classes. I've used to view excel reports within my applets.
