I have been using Delphi 7 for several years. By using I mean
writing a number of toy programs to do things that are
useful to me. I would now like to write a program whose data
is defined in an Excel spread*** (possibly workbook).

Is it possible to import spread*** data directly into a Delphi
environment? Can anyone give me any idea where to
start looking for information?

Yes, you can. To treat Excel like a spread***, Google for
'automation'. To treat Excel like a database, Google for 'ODBC'.
....I _think_ it's ODBC. There may even be a more native driver.
