Default BIFF8 Sample

Sorry but I don't know that I've ever seen example code for creating a BIFF8
file in a programming language like C++. It's not something I've ever been
interested in so there may be stuff "out there".

Of course you could go with a text file or HTML, but those have limitations.

| Hi,
|
| I got the BIFF8 specification format on sourcefourge, but it's quite hard
| for me to understand how to write a minimal file (a sheet with a text in a
| cell) with this format.
| I think that if I get a source code for this, I'll be able to do more by
| myself
|
| Thanks

| BIFF8 is the file format Excel has used since Excel 97 for XLS files.
MS

| you
| mean by "find a BIFF8 sample in VB".
