Thanks Thomas, good idea.  I will use LocalFS to list all the files in =
my
directory.

All I need, is a way to change the DSN parameters on the fly to point =
to the
needed Excel file.  I don't want to create 100 DSN!!!  That's why I =
wonder
if Zope can use File DSN instead of Sytem or User DSN.

Maybe there would be a way to import my Excel sheets without ODBC?  I =
need
them the way they are, not in CSV  format or anything...

But again, thanks for the tip!

[Menard.Jean-Francois@hydro.qc.ca>]

I created an ODBC System DSN, and it work fine.  But I have about
100 excel files, and I would like to develop an interface with a =
dropdown
list with all the excel files in my directory, choose one, and import =
it.

Any ideas how I could do that?  I tried to create a File DSN, but
Zope doesn't seem to detect it. With such a connection, I could change =
the
connection string into the DSN file when needed.

If you always know where the files are located, you could use the =
LocalFS
product.  Or you could write a simple python external method.

Cheers,

Tom P
