Localisation problem with pivot tables   
Hello,

I have a really annoying problem:
When adding a pivot table via PivotTables.Add I have to specify the 
destination in the row/column notation, e.g. R3C1.
This works on english installations but not on german ones. There I have to 
use Z3S1!!
I am using C# to automate Excel.
Before calling any Excel method I set the thread locale to en-US as 
described here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320369/en-us
But still, the problem occurs on german installations.
This is a major issue for me and urgent, too.

Please advise!

Thanks in advance,

Daniel

Why not use the address?  That parm is pretty forgiving.  If I remember
correctly, it'll take a range variable, or an address (A1 reference style) or an
address (r1c1 reference style).
