Help Please! Thanks in advance.

[Derek Richards]

The following syntax is what I found under the Help in Excel's VBA
Editor (you may refer to it for the details of each parameter). i
specified to open in Write
mode (Read Only is false), it doesn't do the way as I wished to open
in
Write mode. Instead, still saw (Read Only) above the MenuBar on the
upper
left corner when an excel file is opened.
Syntax

expression.Open(FileName, UpdateLinks, ReadOnly, Format, Password,
WriteResPassword, IgnoreReadOnlyRecommended, Origin, Delimiter,
Editable, Notify, Converter, AddToMRU)
Here I care nothing else but opening a file in Read & Write. How to
specify the parameters to open in Read & Write in javascript given the
syntax?

Thanks very much.

I suspect the file's readonly attribute is set - you will need to change
that using file io.

IO. Any details? Thanks.

I am talking about changing the file attribute readonly. In VBA this would
be done using setattr

SetAttr "TESTFILE", vbNormal

Your open command gives the option of ignoring readonly recommended which
is Excel's method of making a file readonly.
