>I've tried the constants. I get the OLE "type mismatch" error.

I have no idea what the problem is. It worked for me, for the constants I have used.

You must:

  • Download the file which has the extension .H
  • Use in #include command in your program, or specify an include file in a form or class. (Alternatively, #include some other file, which in turn HAS AN #include for the Excel constants.)

    >
    >>Search the download section, keyword "constants". You have #include files there, which define lots of constants for Excel and Word.
