Is there a generic program that will autoexecute and load my spreadsheet into

Not sure what you are asking...
- You want an Installer to copy a specific Excel file to a specific location ? Plenty of installers available, Inno etc - You want to allow the user to select a file: Application.GetOpenFileName NickHK "TomThumb" wrote in message ...

Is there some standard, existing software that will install my program from
CD to the user's hard drive? -- TomThumb "NickHK" wrote: Not sure what you are asking... - You want an Installer to copy a specific Excel file to a specific location ?

Well a batch file would do it. If you are talking about a single Excel
workbook, it shouldn't be that difficult. Otherwise one of the installer apps can be configured to install various components and register them etc. If you have an Autorun file on the CD, it can execute when the CD is inserted. So I guess the answer is Yes, there is existing software to do the installation, but have to configure it. http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en...Sear ch&meta= But none of this is really an Excel situation, unless you are asking how to do it in VBA.

Excel 2007 VBA How can I install my spreadsheet in a user dire
Nick, Thanks for your responses. I have not been too clear about my
question because I only have a fuzzy idea myself. I will try to sharpen my query: I have a single spreadsheet with VBA macros. I want to place this on a CD. I want the CD to autorun on another user's computer and install in his/her excel directory. I just want the simplest way to accomplish this. -- TomThumb "NickHK" wrote: Well a batch file would do it.

Start he
http://www.phdcc.com/shellrun/autorun.htm http://www.cryer.co.uk/brian/windows/howtocacdtwar.htm I haven't used autoRun much, so can't say much really. Check the link at the bottom of the second site to avoid burning/testing many CDs. NickHK "TomThumb" wrote in message ... Nick, Thanks for your responses.
