VB SCript: CreateObject("Excel.Sheet") function
The CreateObject function, at least as of two weeks ago, is strictly a
server side function.
If you wanted to, say, do some financial functions on the back end for
which an Excel sheet would be useful, you could do this and then return the
results to a web page via Active Server Pages.
I don't think this would meet security considerations for a client app.
