Open an excel-file from the web

[Guest]

I have an excel-file (Excel 2000) that works perfectly when I open it up from
my desktop and other company servers. But, when I have it on a WEB server and
have to open it with a http:-address, I get the Run-time error "9" "Subscript
out of range" and the Debug takes me to "Sheets("Import").Select"" or
Run-Time error 1004 "Method 'Sheets' of object '_Global' failed. I do open
them in new windows. Do I need a reference library and if so which one?

This may not be a good solution for you...

I'd do my best to not let MSIE open the file:

Documents in the Appropriate Office Program Instead of in Internet Explorer

There are just too many things that don't work when an excel file is opened in a
browser.

Unfortunately to configure Internet Explorer will only help me, not the ones
that are opening the Excel-file from their browser unless there is a way for
me to make that change eg by a code either in the htm/asp file or Excel-file.

I don't speak htm/asp. You may want to ask in a forum dedicated to those if you
don't get a helpful response here.
