Anesh,
I can answer this indirectly... In the last paragraph in my previous email I forgot to mention that when you create the Excel sheet on the server it is then also available on the web. Since the Excel sheet will end up in an attachment field on some form, your client (web or Windows) can simply do a Set Fields to pull it to the client. I use this here so web users can generate the same reports as the WUT users.

A key point I forgot to mention is that the application runs on web so many it leaves me with lesser options. I was exploring on DDE and OLE to my disappointment I found later that these are not supported over web. Then I switched to running a report using the Open Window action on an Active Link. But here too I face a problem that the user has to rename the file from <filename>.rep to <filename>.xls and do a save. Is there any way I can force it always to save with a .xls. I have seen a same posting on the same requirement. Hope to see some ideas.
