Hi

I would like to control an Excel file (add new sheet, set a password etc.) without opening the file at all (using some kind of advanced communication protocol maybe?)
I do not want the solution which consists in opening the file and hidding the excel application.

Anyone has any idea on how to do this or where i could find some information?

many thanks
Alex

Why? opening makes it far simpler.
