Hi Rob,

Thanks so much - not closing objwb was indeed my problem.
Tx again,

Hi Bernie,

A Worksheet object doesn't have a close method. It's the objwb
variable,
which represents an Excel.Workbook object, that you need to close. If the
objws variable is a local variable, you really don't need to do anything
at
all, but if you want to explicitly release it for garbage collection then
add the following line to your code:

objws = Nothing

I have the following code fragment for opening and the closing excel in
a
vb
.net app:
objxl = New Excel.Application

objwbs = objxl.Workbooks

objwb = objwbs.Add

objws = CType(objwb.Worksheets(1), Excel.Worksheet)



objwb.SaveAs(strpath, xlCSV)

objxl.DisplayAlerts = False

'objws.close()

objxl.DisplayAlerts = True

Marshal.ReleaseComObject(objws)

objxl.Quit()

My question is, how do you close opjws? The close method no longer
exists.

Tx for any help.

Bernie
