Oh I see, I haven't tried anything like that, I don't know if the selected range affects the contents of the file that's saved, I would assume that "save as" saves the entire document, but anyway, have you tried it the other way around?, I mean, save the excel document as is and then do an "import from ... type XL5" in VFP?, that's what I usually do. I'll try to duplicate what you are trying and let you know.
