Hmm..

I did the same thing and it at least appears to have worked. I ended up
with about 600 packages that appear to be a complete binding to excel.

GNATCOM 1.4 (removed the -gnatg switch that prevents it from building 
with any modern GCC version)

Mingw 4.1 (includes a version based on gcc 3.4.2)

Using Microsoft Excel 2002 10.6501.6714 SP3


In what way did it fail for you?
