I tried this already and it works like a charm with Excel 2000 on Windows XP!

Anyway, thanks again for this great website!

If you do find a way to tunnel out using excel drop a note or email a post about it and I’ll publish it.

Can you direct me to something on using WinHttpRequest with a proxy? I'll of course do my own research too, but if you know of anything useful, do tell!<br /> <br /> Thanks for this great resource!<br /> <br /> MLG4035 Thanks for this, it’ll help get me started however, the place I’d really like to use this (at the office) requires connecting through a proxy server.
