Can someone give me a hint how I can realize that. I already tried to read the exel file as a text_io and sequential_Io file but it's not possible as Text_IO 'cause it must be a sequential_IO (or direct_IO) file. The problem with the sequential_IO is, that i can't figure out how the form and substance of the file looks like (is it a record, what kind of record(contents)?) Thanx in advance Flo
