It does work with the 'Copy To' command but again, when the Excel 2000 user opens the file and then attempts to close it, there is yet another very confusing dialog (different from those I referred to in my initial post), "MyFile.csv may contain features that are not compatible with CSV.

-Copy to myFile.xls type csv
-Open with excel via automation
-SaveAs in normal excel format
Best alternative is to use Excel's QueryTables.Add method. You could use OLEDB or ODBC for that. ie: Check Message #
