I am using Excel 2000 automated by VFP7. If I use :-
GetObject('','excel.application')
if there isn't an existing instance of Excel, one is created. If there is an existing instance, a reference to it is returned.
Question: How can I test whether there is already an existing instance of Excel available?
Using Word2000 in the same circumstances, if I use GetObject() and an instance isn't available, I can trap for an OLE error. What about Excel ?
Any ideas ?
TIA
