hello,
I would like to develop an app, which would find out the total no. of rows and columns from a given excel sheet and read out the data in the same. I have made use of few vi's I found on forum, but having trouble runing them,
can anyone please suggest me what could I be doing wrong? I have never used activex before...

Hello Puneet, I am usnig the same example as the link you posted.
I would like to perform foll:
The user would enter data into an excel file and I would like to read the same in labview program. Since the no. of rows and columns of the data file is not fixed, I would liek to find out
the no. of rows and cols first and then read the entire file.

Hi,
I would have used the Free Excel Toolkit. See some example with it here, here and here.
The library contains premade Excel ActiveX functions. This function right here would have helped you alot:

Hi
Yesterday I sent an email to a guy, explaining how to install it. Download the toolkit and the instructions I have attached and you should be fine.
