hi,

 can anyone give me the code for opening an existing excel sheet using ASP

and performing actions such as write,save,.........

Where is the Excel sheet? On the server or the client?



Client side- you can't use ASP to modify an existing Excel Sheet.



Server side- you can either install office and try to use the Excel 

Objects

(something MS says is unsupported and I have found less than good in

performance and stability) or you can get a third-party tool that lets 

you

work with Excel Files - Like Excel Writer from Software Artisans

(http://www.softwareartisans.com).

P.S. I find it funny that the advertisement WROX attached to your 

posting is

for this very object. (Though it's currently Version 2.0 not 1.1).
