The XLL Plus library provides a number of C++ header files for use in writing Excel add-ins. The classes and definitions contained in the header files have been designed to simplify the use of Excel programming objects, but only a subset is needed by programmers building the standard run of add-in functions.
The table below summarises the C++ header files available in the library.
