Any help you guys & gals could give would be a HUGE help. I have two questions regarding a VB program I'm writing.

1) I have a form that the user will click "browse" to locate a certain Excel file. After selecting the file, the file name and path go to a list box. However, many of the Excel files the users will be using will have multiple tabs. How can I get all the available tabs to appear in another listbox for the user to select?

2) The program will interface with the database via a listbox screen on a VB form. While the program is processing the changes in the database, I would like it to keep a lot of the records it's changing in another list box. How can that be done?

Thanks!

Once you have opened the spreadsheet of interest, you can then access the worksheets. They are,

For intI = 1 to excel.application.worksheets.count
list.add excel.application.worksheet(intI).name
next intI

This may not be the exact syntax, but it should be close enough to get you going in the right direction
