Hi Perry ---

You could create an Excel sheet and write each row of data via OLE Automation if you really wanted to but it may be easier to use the COPY TO ...TYPE XLS combo to create the file then use automation to open it:

oExcel=CREATEOBJECT("Excel.Application")
oExcel.Workbooks.Open("NewXLSFile.XLS")

Now do whatever you would like to it. Look at VBA Help in Excel. VBA syntax for manipulating Excel stuff is not all that different than VFP.

I'm a little confused, do I use CREATEOBJECT('Excel.sheet') and export the data to the worksheet?? VFP help is a little vague in the matter.
