    It is possible to lock the Excel process my app creates at runtime so that if the PC user opens another Excel file it does not get opened into 'my' excel process? Would this be an Excel thing that I can control?

      There is no way to "lock" the Excel process. You can't really handle the WorkbookLoad event either, because that event fires AFTER the new workbook is loaded... RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome
