>Yes. However, _VFP.DataToClip() gives something like the following:

Field1    	Field2	Field3    		
>3/4/2004  	8     	3/4/2004  	
>3/4/2004  	9     	3/4/2004  	
>3/4/2004  	*     	3/4/2004  	
>3/4/2004  	*     	3/4/2004

>>>...Due to a logic error my program was generating numeric overflow when storing some numeric values into cursor numeric columns. Till this point it's all ok, BUT, when I looked at the resulting Excel spreadsheet the result was not only overflow in those numeric columns, but ALSO in some date columns.

I like the DataToClip() feature! However, it is strange to get a field overflow in a circumstance such as this one. Something else must be affecting the data.
