Default Use of Solver outside Excel, from VB6 - without using Excel.

Thanks Tom.

You would have to automate Excel. The user would have to have both

Excel
and solver installed.

Hi All
Does anyone know if it is possible to use the functionality that
resides within the Excel Solver add-in, from within a VB6 application
- outside Excel? I know that you can call from VB6 a macro inside an
Excel workbook which will then use solver, but is it possible
*without* Excel and without having to purchase the Solver dll?

Thanks
Andrew
