Thank you Tom. But I definitely do not want to do anything with .NET. MS has a history of not being backwards compatible. The whole reason I am doing OpenOffice and Python is because a) it ties me to MS and I want to be able to run on UNIX and support any OS for my clients (thus WebSpeed - GUI is dead), and b) the excel interface is not reliable anyhow - meaning you never know when it will simply fail as they changed stuff around. If I could help it, I would completely remove anything MS from my life. Unfortunately, there are still people around that drank the MS Cool-Aid and insist on having MS servers, despite all the problems. So I just have to bite the bullet... But, I definitely don't want to deal with .NET... Still, I am glad you explained how to do it, so other folks - who might not be so .NET averse - might be able to work around the issues with the command-prompt execution... :)
