Dim w As New notesuiworkspace
Dim session As New NotesSession
Dim db As NotesDatabase
Dim Doc As NotesDocument
Dim notesformula As String
Dim xlApp As Variant
Dim xlsheet As Variant
Dim xlChart As Variant
Dim uidoc As notesuidocument
Dim ExcelFileName As String

Set uidoc = w.currentdocument
Set doc = uidoc.document

Set db = Session.currentdatabase

Dim dbPath As String
Dim serverPath As String
serverPath = GetServerPath("CTT Templates")
dbPath = GetDirPath("CTT Templates")
Dim dbPay As New NotesDatabase(serverPath, dbPath)

Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.application")
xlApp.Workbooks.Open(dbPath &"expense.xlt")

xlApp.Visible = False

Set xlsheet = xlApp.Workbooks(1).Worksheets(1)

With xlsheet
.Range("A1").Value = "Financial Overview by Expense Type
(Reporting Period: " & doc.ShowDate(0) & ")"
