Help with Working VI to not close all instances of Excel

[Oneillp111]

I have a VI that I found on the NI website.  It searched an excel file, in a specific cell location, etc "A1" and returns what ever is in that cell location.  Then it closes the file and Excel, including all other workbooks.  Can anyone help me change this so that it will only close the workbook that has been opened by the VI?

Start learning the Excel Object Model. http://analysistabs.com/excel-vba/open-close-existing-workbook/

Maybe someone will do your work for you, but I prefer to learn how to do the work myself.

As for "not helpful", if you are going to use actual Excel and don't want to use the Report Generation Toolkit, then you had better get yourself familiar with the Excel Object Model.

No, not help.

You were looking for someone to do work for you.

If you were looking for help, you'd post a VI of what you have attempted.
