Can anyone please tell me a good place to look, so I can learn about
calling
windows API's from excel.

I am interested in websites, newsgroups and books on the subject.

Thanks in advance

Anthony



You could do a lot worse than

' The Visual Basic Programmers Guide to the Win 32 API'
Author : Daniel Appleman'

alternatively see

'Visual Basic 6 Win32 API Tutorial'
Author Jason Bock

Personally I use

' The Win 32 Programming API Bible' by
Richard Simon but its rather long in the tooth and
is biased towards C++

Online there's quite a nice tutorial at

http://www.geocities.com/SiliconVall.../apitutor.html

and some nice examples/samples at

Be aware that the Windows API is nothing like as forgiving
an interface as VBA and its entriely possible to crash your app
so make VERY sure you save before trying to run anything.
