I have a customer that wishes to enter a recipe in an excel spreadsheet and then download it to a MicroLogix 1400. Is there a way to do this?

In the past, I have had success using DDE (I think that is the right term) and RSlinx Gateway to pull values into Excel, but I'm not sure about going the other way. Any suggestions?

A recipe consists of about 30 parameters. My PLC is set up so that these parameters are stored in consecutive memory locations: F104:0 to F104:29.
