Automating Excel without MFC

[howardnl]

Hello,

I am automating Excel with VC++. I have been using all the wrappers instead of direct COM Automation. Direct automation is supposed to be faster, but how much of a performance increase is there? I need the absolute best performance possible, but I would like to know if it is worth my time to rewrite the little bit of code I have.

Also, the only example I have been able to find without MFC is

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q216686,

does anyone have any other links to good examples?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Thanks,
Nick
