rafaelcadina Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 G'day guys. Hope you're doing fine. I wonder if it's possible to read cells data from excel from a file which is already opened. I've already read about _ExcelReadCell function, but it requires opening an excel file each time i run the script. As I work with many worksheets in a single workbook, it's not a good idea to open the Excel file for each sheet i need to work with. Do you know any workaround? Thank you very much!

BrewManNH Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Try it with _ExcelBookAttach instead of _ExcelOpen. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.
