Step 4: Run ASP code that reads XLS file

<%@ Language=VBScript%><%'============================================================================
' Tutorial 37

' This tutorial shows how to read an Excel XLS file in Classic ASP
' (the XLS file generated by Tutorial 28 as base template), modify
' some data and save it to another XLS file (Tutorial37 - read XLS file.xls).

Overloaded methods For methods with same name but different parameters, only the first method overload retains the original name. Subsequent overloads are uniquely renamed by appending to the method name '_2', '_3', etc (method, method_2, method_3), an integer that corresponds to the order of declaration that can be found in EasyXLS.h, a file that comes with EasyXLS installation.
