First, It is not encouraged to use Excel files. They are in a very
proprietary format which means you would need to create functions that
are extremely excel-specific. Rather save the sheet as comma-separated
text, then find common csv import/export functions. 
However if you are stuck with Excel either communicate through the COM
object (brr!), or use ASP, which is much more compatible with the
Microsoft DOM.
