2254.0. "Excel Macro and integration" by BACHUS::BERVOETS (Luc Bervoets - CSC Brussels alive and kicking) Wed May 28 1997 08:35

    Hello,
    
    One of our customers has the following problem with Linkworks v3.0.8 on
    Windows/NT platform.
    
    When they want to insert a Excel-macro into a spreadsheet and they want
    to close it they get the following error "Unable to write to disk".
    
    When they click on the OK-button and do a "Save Spreadsheet Y/N" , it
    seems to be saved.
    But when they Open the Spreadsheet again with EXcel they get the
    message "File Format is not valid" and under Linkworks they get message
    "It is not possible to start EXcel <filename>" Error 0.
    
    Any ideas?
    
    Thanks,
    
    Regards,
    
    Luc.

This problem is introduced in FT version 3.0.8pE by the implementation of:
- OLE2 documents are not written incrementally anymore (the complete
  document is saved each time iso of the changes). This saves disk
  space on the server.

We will make a new version available on short notice.
