Hi Erich, Thanks for your help.
I have a couple of questions though. Apologies if they seem stupid. 1) Do you mean install RSrv250_pl2.exe on top of the Rpackage version of RExcel or RSrv250_pl1.exe or uninstall all components and install RSrv250_pl2.exe stand alone? 2) Ive tried searching for how to unregister the (D)COM server but with no luck. How do you do this?
