In the example posted by al2791:
https://wetransfer.com/downloads/f09b04 ... e=sendgrid, line 5 is empty. It seems that it isn't taken into account, as requesting display of line 5, result in line 6. So line 5 is interpreted as the 5th non empty line.
Thanks anyway!

Hi HexOR,
thank you very much for your Excel module.
Good that I was looking for something like that after all, because I was just about to write something of my own to be able to read in Excel tables with PB.
Pew, then I don't need to reverse engineer the XLSX format further

Yeah, I'm pretty sure, whoever "developed" that format must have had some serious brain damage

And even on Windows you can open/edit Excel files with COMatePLUS only if Excel is installed on the same computer, no?

Yes, especially because of the "shared strings technology".

If Excel has to be installed, that would be an exclusion criterion for COMatePlus. I also just want to read a few rows from a spreadsheet. HexOR's include file probably has less overhead.

Tested HeX0R's code and work just fine. Is there a way to read xls files too?

Is a different format.
Try with ODBC driver

Hello HeX0R!
I have an XLSX spreadsheet that causes your code to get stuck in a loop.
Would you be willing to look at this spreadsheet to try to figure out what's going on?
If so, I will send you a PM with a link to download it.
Thank you,
Eric

I'm very surprised that no one has mentioned comate, because with this module it's even possible to emulate visual basic quite simply and thus control an excel file.
