Hello Eric,

Add-in Express doesn't provide any special means to achieve this. It allows you creating an Excel add-in that you can use to provide an UI for the user who would import data and handle Excel events. As to the actual import operation, you can use the Macro Recorder in Excel to record a VBA macro while performing the task in the Excel UI. The macro will show you the classes/members used; you can the descriptions of the classes and members using this note:


Getting Help on COM Objects, Properties and Methods

To get assistance with host applications?Â?Ð?é objects, their properties, and methods as well as help info, use the Object Browser. Go to the VBA environment (in the host application, choose menu Tools | Macro | Visual Basic Editor or just press {Alt+F11}), press {F2}, select the host application in the topmost combo and/or specify a search string in the search combo. Select a class /property /method and press {F1} to get the help topic that relates to the object.


Then you can translate the macro to Delphi.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Andrei,

That answer my question. But I do have another one if you don't mind.

We have another application that is an add in in Excel. Basically it add functions that get data from a database. Now the migration is done and build no problem, and I can add the add in to excel.. unfortunately i can't see my stuff in Excel function. I wonder is there some steps that I miss or the old code with the new component add-in express should work like before. I have excel 2013 32 bit ?

Any help would be appreciated

thanks
