I'm not sure what you are trying to do, but I use DDE (dynamic data exchange) with Excel and AB SLC PLCs. You need RSLinx OEM minimum, and you will have to write some VBA to control the communication. Example: I have one part that has over 1200 different configurations, put in by a waterjet cutter. The operator scans the barcode label into Excel, which matches the p/n to a database, then sends the proper code to the PLC, which controls the cutter. If this sounds like what you want to do contact me below.

To the second (Excel to PLC) you can use JagusDataLogger embedded in a Excel macro.
Contact support @ pdutech. com for more info.

I'm needing to find out what others use as their Project ID. What's the common format that a lot of people use for their Project ID???
