Ditto on NT4. Curious that oExcel = .NULL would get rid of it completely. I mean, that's good but you would think an explicit quit would work.
>>That's what I was afraid of. As I mentioned in my post (^&$$%@ HTML tags< g >), I used both oExcel = NULL and RELEASE oExcel, just to be sure with no affect. I would hope that someone (preferably running Win 98 SE) would confirm this though, even if I'm already pretty sure of the answer.
