Hi Lutz,

>"I don't like license tools installed"

I understand your point and accept it. My new developments are now mostly based on as much open-source material as possible (using python as glue). However still have an MS-based development environment to nurture!

As far as I concerned, I accept to pay a "one-shot" fee for a product that allow my clients not to care about their MS-Excel install or even, should they want to, have no MS-Excel install at all.

Any free-er alternative proposal - not dotnet-based - is welcome?

Daniel
