I'm new to using VB 6, and I was wondering if there is an easy way to convert an excel file that I have, so it will run in VB as a stand alone application, rather than use excel to run it.
The quick answer to your question is "No". AFAIK, there isn't a readily available method to convert and Excel spreadsheet into a VB (or C++, etc.) application.
Even if you wrote an application to manipulate the data in Excel, the end user would still have to have Excel installed.
Most Excel spreadsheets are pretty simple, even when extremely large, and writing the application from scratch is not that big an undertaking. By simple, I mean that the spreadsheet mostly contains simple equations like "sum()" or adding/multiplying/etc. a few cells. If yours is more complicated than that, it should be quite a chore to write an app that does the same thing.
