Struggling with the most elementary thing

I have made a very fancy excel task pane and a smashing ribbon. But how do I interact with the spreadsheet?

Hello Michael,

Look at the sample project described in the manual, see Your First Microsoft Office COM Add-in in the PDF file in the folder {Add-in Express}\Docs on your development PC. The project is can also be found in the folder \Documentation Samples\Your First Microsoft Office COM Add-in in this download - http://www.add-in-express.com/bitrix/rd.php?event1=download&event2=adx.net.samples&event3=&goto=/files/samples/adx-net-sample-projects.zip

I use Add-inn for VCL and Delphi XE4.
I have downloaded the example files but I still can't see how to write "Hi" in cell A1.
I expect to find a "workbook" variable somewhere in the example code, but I can't find it.

I'm sorry, please see the download labelled Add-in Express for Office and VCL sample projects at http://www.add-in-express.com/downloads/adxvcl.php.

In fact, you need to access ExcelApp.ActiveWorkbook or ExcelApp.Workbooks.Item[i].

PLease have a look at http://www.add-in-express.com/forum/read.php?FID=1&TID=3105&MID=14708#message14708.
