I am trying to get my tiddlywiki to talk to excel, i pasted this code into a tiddler, but only the first msgBox shows up...

<html>

<head>

window.onClickAction = function myFunction()

{

alert('Hello from JavaScript!')

var exApp = new ActiveXObject("Excel.Application");

exApp.Workbooks.Open("c:\\Test.xlsx");

exApp.Visible = true;

exApp.UserControl = true;

exApp.Range("A2").Select()

exApp.ActiveCell= "hello world"

alert('Hello from JavaScript!')

}

</script>

</head>

<input type=button value="Try it now"

onClick="onClickAction()">

</form>

</html>

whatever

Hi!
ActiveXObject only works in Internet Explorer, if I'm not mistaken.
But if you do get it to work (even if just in IE), I'm sure plenty
people would be interested in seeing how you pulled it off.

Maybe its easier to write to a xml file and then read the xml file in excel?
