I'd consider using COM to work with Excel files if you can't find another way to get the information out. The PHP Handbook (O'Reilly) has a good chapter on that sort of thing. Then you can just refer to a cell as you would in Excel VBA. Sorry I can't think of anything better! C -Original Mes

Given that excel (and generaly any microsoft app/bloatware) puts so much junk into the files that sometimes excel itself cannot read it it is virtualy impossible to write a pure php solution. The easiest path is to use COM and run excel on the server, but this rules out any non windows server.
