:-) 
Everything makes some sense, I think. But not every thing automated 
has one. IE application has to embed Excel control for update or view 
shared database files. This service is good and useful. 

You want to make more cool trick (double embedding with log in!): 
1. AutoIt script has to embed IE control
2. Embedded IE control has to connect to remote Excel database. 
3. Embedded IE control has to embed Excel control to open downloaded 
file.

This is like to embed Outlook control into IE to update local 
account. Isn't it?
