Hi Derek,

Thanks for the response, here is my scenario.

We have various BizTalk environments setup, Development,
Testing, User Acceptance Testing (UAT) and Production
environment.

We have Office XP installed only on our development server
and we do not want to install Office or Excel on any other
environment as we will need to buy license to install the
same on production.
What I was planning to do was (If possible) to create the
live book and XML on development server and use the XML to
create the infrastructure on other environments. Re-point
the Live Excel created on development to
Testing/UAT/Production. Is that feasible? Look forward for
your advice.

Thanks in advance.
Amar
