The Microsoft Excel Software Development Kit has a good tutorial on
using the REGISTER function and writing code resources that are called
from Excel. The SDK is a book available from Microsoft Press (just came
out - at your computer bookseller now!). We don't have any specific
instructions for Pascal (the SDK was designed for C programmers);
although it is certainly possible to use Pascal some of the data types
may be a little bit different.

Good luck,
