Are you wanting to create Excel .xls files to be deposited on the server?
If you're returning information to the browser where Excel with be engaged,
you have other options. Using CFCONTENT, you can return a comma delimited
file that will engage Excel and be read by it. You can do this without
Excel on the server.

Subject: Using Excel COM Object without installing Excel
Does anyone know if one can access the Excel COM object using the CFOBJECT
tag without installing the full Excel application on the server? I am
wondering if there is just a type library, or a combination of DLLs that can
be installed on the server, rather than actually installing Excel. If you
have done this, it would be great if you could refer me to any instructions
you found regarding the installation.
Thanks,
Bob
