Hello Dear Excel Experts,

I am writing a fairly simple postage calculator in Excel 2000 VBA.
Postage rates are stored on one worksheet, with input text boxes,
control buttons (clear input cells, calculate postage etc.) and output
cells on another. I'd like to publish this on a web page.

I don't want it to look like Excel - just look like text boxes, and
buttons on a web page.

I'm not sure where to start with this. I don't think "Save as a web
page" will work, with interactivity and macros running in the
background. I have standard webspace with my ISP account - do I need
to have special webspace that one can run executables from?

Any help on where to make a start would be appreciated.

Your best bet may be to let users download your Excel file.

If you Save as Webpage with interactivity then you'll have to replace your
macros with ASP scripts or whatever. And users will need to have the Office
Web Components installed.

Otherwise, you should develop this as a true web application using Frontpage
or the tool of your choice.
