is that the only way? i didnt realise it would be that hard as such.

Our servers at work support ASP, JS and HTML etc, not sure about PHP.

Basically our intranet is a html page with a few hyperlinks, then we have say a hyperlink to Excel

It was so the user can click Excel, which should just run the file similar to: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Excel.exe etc

You may be able to do certain limited things with Excel from its command
line. But if you want the user to be able to actually interact with Excel
or Office in the _usual_ way, and from a remote machine, you need more
than an web server.



Or a shared folder Form Windows to Windows. Check you licensing agreements with Ol' MS if you want to run as an Apps Server...We do one a public library server that I manage, but the SW was purchased with such a license.
