I believe you are correct. You'll have to do something like this:
ows = oexcel.Worksheets.Add
The Excel application has lots of methods and properties. "Microsoft Office Automation with Visual Foxpro" by Tamar Granor and Della Martin, put out by Hentzenwerke Publishing, is a good starting place for working with it.
