Default Collecting data from external measurements, such as temp or weight

Any ideas how i can import data from electronic weghts or temperature
measurements into an excel file. If possible I want to register measurements
at fixed interwalls, and stamping the values with time and date.
One new row for each measurement.
How can this be taken care of?

There is a product out there alreay that does this. IIRC it's called
"software wedge" or something like that. Takes numbers from anywhere and
inserts them into XL.
www.taltech.com ... though that was a while ago. :)

I believe you find life such a problem because you think there are the good
people and the bad people. You're wrong, of course. There are, always and
only, the bad people, but some of them are on opposite sides.
