| re: GetObject() func does not work in asp.net?
Norman,
Thanks very much for being great help. Since you've helped answering this
question, would you please help answering my Win app question reqarding the
same object? What would I have to do to completely close the objExcel I
execute the app? For I have problem opening the file once the obj had been
accessed until I restart Windows. Thanks.
