Ok, while I'm looking at the code, here's something that
Andreas Haumer sent me about a related problem.

"But we did another test and we now know it has something to do
with the version of MS Office: the error only occurs with (old)
Excel from Office97, it does not occur with Excel from Office2003!
I can't explain what is going on here, but maybe that's a hint for
others having the same problem"

I was wondering what Excel version you're using ?

Jeremy.
