- but only to user that have Excel
| Thank you for your reply, this should clarify the problem.
| This query arose because a friend viewing my site who has office XP cw Excel
| on his computer said this:-
| "I have just realised, instead of the toolbar at the bottom of the page I
| have got a section headed 'Missing: Microsoft Web Components' with a link
| below this inviting me to go to Microsoft to download these components. But
| it is actually pointing to 'file:///X:/OFFICE/files/owc11/setup.exe' but this
| fails because I don't have an X: drive mapping, so I assume it's something
| from your computer."
|
| X is my DVD drive from which I installed Office 2003 in the first place.
| No other visitor has make any such comment.
|
| My reason for using the CSV file was that the supplied Guestbook only saved
| the comments and I wished to save all information. I did attempt to use the
| database system but this required as far as I could see a Windows server
| wheras the server I use is Linux based. "UKHosts4U"
