>If the sheets are not large, you might want to think about using Excel automation to populate and name the sheet for you; put the data into your XLS spreadsheet, open a new workbook using automation, and then copy the XLS (or DBF - Excel can read a DBF file) into the proper cells, or open the XLS you create using automation and then rename it via Save As before exposing it to the user to edit.
The problem here is that the "Save" command still won't be disabled - I only want the user to have access to the file to have a filename - IOW, if the user presses "Save", I want the "SaveAs" dialog to appear; I do not want the user to overwrite some temporary filename.
I was looking for some "Insert from File" command, but this seems to be available only in MS-Word, not in Excel.
