Hi - I have been writing an Excel Automation client in VC++, and what I have so far is extremely slow. I think the biggest problem is that my program needs to look at all 6 Border objects & extract line style and line weight properties from all border objects of every cell in a Range. This takes several minutes on most Ranges. One MS article that I found mentions using arrays to pass large amounts of data, but the only examples that they give is for the Range::GetValue() function. Is there a way to extract data from any other objects (esp. Border objects or Borders collection)in an array? Any calls that I can remove from my program will speed it up. Do any other objects support this array capability?

Any tips would be extremely helpful.

Thanks,
