>>Hi,
>>
>>An automation process that used to work is now failing, in Excel 2010, for security reasons. Apparently Excel finds the idea of being automated to open an Excel file suspicious.
>>
>>The relevant commands are:
>>
>>
>>copy to (lcTempFile) type XLS
>>...
>>loWorkbookTemp = This.oExcel.oApp.Workbooks.Open(lcTempFile)
>>
>>
>>Excel - if it was previously open - says something about the trust center (similar to the message below, shown in Visual FoxPro).
>>
>>After accepting the message in Excel, Visual FoxPro gives the error message "You are attempting to open a file type that is blocked by your File Block settings in the Trust center..."
>>
>>I have used COPY TO ... TYPE XLS to make an Excel automation faster - transfer an entire DBF at once - since transferring one cell at a time would be exceedingly slow, especially for large files.
>>
>>Any ideas, how best to handle this?
>>
>>TIA,
>>
>>Hilmar.

Also, changing the path to the working folder - return
fullpath(sys(2015)) - results in the same error.
