Mark,

Unless you are a more than reasonably experienced programmer, with a good
understanding of object models and Excel (if not VBA), and depending upon
the timescales, then I would suggest that this is a poisoned assignment.
To
learn VBA, Excel, Excel object model, inter-program communication, et al,
is
not a trivial task, and will take months to develop to any sensible level
of
competency as the limited spec you give suggests is required.

Thanks for the comments! You are absolutely right. Fortunately I have a
solid background in C/C++, java etc. On top of this I have some user
experiance with EXCEL. Finally the only interfacing with GAMS is through
flat files.

Still, i do not intend to underestimate the size of this assignment.
