I've used COM objects to write to Excel spreadsheets and had no-end of problems. But never tried reading from it, well, did minimal reading to find the next blank cell, so I guess it would be much the same. It's pretty simple stuff using the COM object to access it tho.

I realize that it is a flimsy datasource but I have a need to quickly and dynamically take the information stored in spreadsheets and manipulate the data and write them to a SQL database. I would be grateful for any assistance or information on how to do this.
