Hi Koen

Thanks for the feedback. In view of of the pricing, I'll most certainly purchase the stuff.

CTL_32 is a bit more daunting of a task to integrate - it's a big dependency - but I'll, most certainly try to explore the stuff in the coming month as well:)

But that"s a longer story of course. The good news: I hope this molebox-ed stuff should run install-free and dlls-free on both MS and non-MS platforms. Last time I checked this app on Mc-Intosh it ran well indeed. And the only missing bit was : MS-Excel automation. Once the activex cleaning is done, I'll make sure to drop the MS-Excel dependency (both on the read and write side) as well with this:
