Hi Velayutham,

You can have look at my rep2excel tool here in downloads
It is class having all bunch of wrappers for common excel writing tasks.

You can manipulate/write xls file using simple 2D and 3Dd positioning shemes, using simple method calls like ;

oXL=createobject('excel_file_automation')
oXL.open_instance(cTemplateXLSFile) && or from scratch
.
** Writing 
oXL.make_cell(nSheet,nRow,nCol, myValue)
oXL.table_in_section(nSheet,nRow,nCol,'myAlias','field1|field2|||field-n')
oXL.array_in_section(nSheet,nRow,nCol, @myAraay)
.
.

**Simple Graphics
oXL.draw_box(2,2, 20,20)
oXL.paint_box(2,2, 20,20, nColorNumber)
oXL.l_h_single(22,2, 22, 20)
oXL.insert_picture(nSheet,nRow,nCol, cFile)
.
.

Also, there are various wrappers for setting formulas , fonts , formating cells, merging cells, setting print area etc.

*** Output.xls file destination is preset via property to 'C:\windows\desktop' which is way outdated nowdays so, pls amend that property (or entire saving method) to output some place else where you can see/use it...
Source and samples are included.

There is also article in last Foxpro Advisor, written by Walter Savinovich
presenting similar aproach. Perhaps there is some code to download from there as well, if you are subscriber.
