Was just wondering if it is quicker, pros & cons about opening an Excel template from a folder or if it is faster to embed the template in the application and use that, I haven't really used embedded resource files much, so any info greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help on this. -- Paul Hartland paul.hartland at googlemail.com Virus-free. www.avg.com <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>
