ADODB over HTTP?
Hi,
I've currently got an ADODB connection to a CSV file on a fileserver working over TCP-IP. My VBA looks something like this: fname = "\\fileserver\directory\file.csv" With resultLocation.Worksheet.QueryTables.Add(Connectio n:="TEXT;" & fname, Destination:=resultLocation) .attributes = blah End With However, the production of our CSV files is now automated as a cron job on an AIX box and the only feasible way to access them (between platforms) is accross HTTP. Can I get excel to easily connect over this protocol, i.e. making my string filename string more like: fname = "http://internal.server/directory/file.csv" My first attempts have failed miserably - is this idea going anywhere? Thanks, Louis |
