Can you see Excel Macro Example.vi listed in the NI Example Finder? If you can run it and it works as expected then the project.xls is in the examples\comm directory.@Ton: If you setup your vi search path to include the examples directory the vi posted should load up fine on your machine.Hope this helpsDavid

I think I know what your problem might be.
It says this in the VI description "Before running this example, make sure that project.xls is in the same directory as this VI"
Have you prevously opened the example and done a File -> Save As to a new file location so that you could work on a new file using the example as a baseline? The project.xls needs to be in the same location as the new file that you saved.
Also, watch out. There is a chance that you have updated the orginal ExcelExamples.llb if you didn't check Save a copy with updating callers, closed the Excel Macro Example.vi then opened up the new file in memory from its new location.

And another thing. I can see that you are asking excel related questions in other threads. Have you seen the Excel Board thread here
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=BreakPoint&message.id=2391
There are examples there and would hopefully help you with all your excel questions.

All the obvious is done [office 2003 is working & running], I know exactly what it says about where to put project.xls. The problem is I do NOT have the project.xls file ANYWHERE on my hard drive.
