Use of Excel with ASP

[geode]

I have an application that uses an Access front-end to
pass numbers to Excel and then saves the results of the
Excel calculations back in Access.
I would like to know if I can keep the EXCEL workbook for
the calculations (they are too complicated to translate
easily) and create an ASP for the front end.
I intend to change Access to SQL tables.

I've never worked with Frontpage so an example or
reference would be appreciated.

Hi,
can you give us more details on what you're doing? In this newsgroup a
front-end would always be a web page - are you saying you're taking some
data from the user doing some funky calculations in Excel and storing the
result in Access? Depending on your server setup using Excel from a web page
would fall somewhere between not advisable and impossible.

Really excel is not a viable option - you would need to look at performing
your business logic in ASP and/or your db - they're well capable of doing
what you need but we would need more details to be able to help you atall
