Excel is an OLE automation client and server, it's really easy to create an excel ole object, to open new spreadsheets, to fill the cells with data and so on, you can use all of the excel functionality from your vfp application. vfp as the fastest database engine and excel for the mathematical and statistical computation power.

I'm thinking of doing a generic 'report to excel' function instead of coding every report. Maybe I can read the report format and generate a simple report to Excel. Any idea?
