The first quick thought is to use the run command.
Make up a string which is 'Excel ' + csv file name and use this as an
arguement for the run command. This should start excel and make it open
the
CSV file but I dont know if it will automatically im****t the file.
I did this man years ago to run a external processing function from
clarion, clumsy but it worked ( and still does - the syytem is still being
used )
