Re: [Dev-C++] EXCEL files as a datasource

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

Bad idea. Definitely complex.

If you really, really, really have to, you can communicate with a running
Excel application and send/receive data, but it isn't easy. And trying to
read and/or write *.xls files are not something you want.

If you need to share data between Excel and your program, it's easier  to
let Excel access the data from an alternative source.

Export/import of comma-separated text files, storing data in an Access
database etc.
