Hi all,



I hope someone out there can help.  I'm having a little problem with one 

of the projects I'm working on, and was hoping someone out there has had a 

similar issue and knew how to deal with it.



I've been asked by a client to produce a share price page which draws 

information from another specified website.  My first solution to this was 

to use Excel XP to create Web Queries, and then to pull that information 

into a web page using ADO.  This has now been achieved and works fine, but 

the problem I do still have is that the information in the Excel file will 

not automatically update unless opened by Excel, so all I have at the 

moment is a web page that imports static information.  Does anyone out 

there know how I can get the information within the Excel file to update 

upon pulling it into an ASP page?  Or perhaps another way to get at the 

dynamic information from one website to another?



Thanks for any help you may provide,



Lee
