what

This is a libxlsxwriter, A C library for creating Excel XLSX files binding for FreeBasic. Most of the work is done by fbfrog. So that is the reason I call the file as **auto_**xlsxwriter.bi

how to use

First of all, you should compile libxlsxwriter.dll by yourselves. I don't use Linux/MaxOSX, so please add several lines for them and do test by yourselves if you are in Linux/MaxOSX.

There are many examples, please read them. Most of the examples are translated from the original C examples coming with official libxlsxwriter by John McNamara, [email protected]. All of them can be compiled and run without problem, but with only one exception defined_name_no.bas which uses complex C macro so that I don't know how to translate it into FreeBasic.

But there is still mini.bas and test.bas which are written by me without using auto_xlsxwriter.bi.
