I am displaying the data into HTML table into a EXcel file using the REsponse.header and content type, The data retrieved from the database is sucessfully displayed and I am able to open Excel application and save it. But in One of my TD tag I have a image <IMG> tag which should disply the image, but in the excel application the image is not loaded, If I open the table in web browser the image is visible.
Also if I select the save open form the file download box, there is a blank browser window still open, I open this file with window.open functionality. Can somebody suggest how to close the blank window when the excel file is saved on the client PC instead of opening.
If there are any tutorials out there or websites that can explain more about this? How to get data from an excel file(or any other file like a .txt) and inserting them into a database using asp? can this be done in asp?
I am writing a web-based information portal and one of the requested features is that some data be outputted not to the screen, but to an MS Excel file.

I am extracting data from a SQL table and attempting to display in a browser window as an Excel sheet. I have no problem with this but, depending upon the data, I get unhelpful results.
In the first case the data being displayed is a SQL varchar "11-20" but when displayed in the spreadsheet it is appearing as "Nov-20"
The other problem is if I display large numbers (energy account numbers) e.g. 4412345678901, they are appearing as 4.41235E+11, even if they are of type varchar.
Is there anything that I can put into the (very old) code that will display the values as they should be displayed?
I have a report created in ASP (not ASP.NET) that uses Response.ContentType="application/vnd.ms-excel" to display the results of a query from SQL Server 2003 formatted as an html table using Excel in Internet Explorer (version 6.0.2800).
The report displayed fine when my PC had Excel 97 installed. My PC was recently upgraded to Office 2003 and now the report only displays the report header. Does anyone know of a change I can make to the ASP code to display the rest of the report in Excel 2003?

I want to show the whole html source code (which is from the database column) in the text area. Is there any special way to display the html tags in a text area. Hope I have made myself clear enough. how to achieve this?
You know how you can use "Response.ContentType" to tell the browser to display the content as Excel or Word and it will automatically convert your html page into an .xls or .doc file. My question is can I convert it to PDF? If so how?
