Sorry Hal I did not see the step you used to clear out the cells. That part gave me the piece I needed and it is working perfect now.
 
Thanks again!

Lonnie,
  Be sure to set the DAO reference and the Excel reference. This works in
Access/Excel 2000. Please see comment about where to set column and row
reference. This code currently uses A1 as the starting point.
Good Luck

I have a recordset that I would like to write as rows in an excel
spreadsheet.

I want to start on a certain line.

The columns are already predefined and match my recordset.

This will run each month so it will need to overwrite the prior month's
data.

What is the best way to go about this?




                May God bless you beyond your imagination!
