I usually worked with DDE component to write data to EXCEL 2000 (OS win98 & LV 5.1), It's worked perfect. when I started to work with LV 6, The same application did not work properly (The excel sheet opened but nothing was written inside). Please give me advise of another way to do it.
I came up with a similar problem. I had to update to LabVIEW 5.11 which was a free update on their ftp.ni.com. I also had to delete the automation reference and replace it with a new one.
