List: ruby-talk #323641
Hi David,

What happens when you run this code?
>> only Console opens(command prompt)

Does the Excel window appear?
>>No

Do you receive an error?
>>No message appears

Do you have Excel installed on that PC?
>> Ms Excel is installed

Does the workbook already exist?  Or are you looking to create a new 
workbook?
>>already exists

Problem - unable to open Excel with this code.
Want to open (visible) and want to write text and then save.


Thanks
Riya
