Hi, do you mean using the DAL without running a web server? If so, look at this http://www.web2py.com/AlterEgo/default/show/215
I reckon you could use that in combination with pyxll. If you're looking for another way, you *may* be able to use ExcelDNA ( https://exceldna.codeplex.com/) and create an IronPython project which imports the DAL libraries...Don't take my word on that, perhaps someone a bit more informed than me know of a reason why this wouldn't work.. You can debug that too, but you're working in .Net if that's not a problem... I'd be very interested in finding out how you get on!
