Is this possible? I am planning to export data from SQL that generates HTML
table. Instead of selecting the table and then copy then paste to excel, is
ther a script(JS or VB) that will automatically export or open the Query to
it.
I am planning to export data from SQL that generates HTML table. Instead of selecting the table and then copy then paste to word, I need a script(JS or VB) that will automatically export or open the Query to word.
I an using ASP to read a database table and generate an HTML table which is save via FSO with a file extension of .xls which opens up in MS-Excel. I am inserting several lines of text into a cell and would like to force a line break between them.
I recorded an MS-Excel macro so see how Alt-Enter was captured which turned out to be Chr(10) which is the same as vbLf (right?)
I tried inserting that in character in the text but it didn't show up as a line break in MS-Excel.
I have been able to successfully export data to Excel via ASP, however there is a small problem.When the file download window is displayed (to export to excel), you have have several options: open, save and cancel. Pressing the save button allows you to save a *.xls file to your HDD (THIS WORKS FINE). However, most users will push the open button. By doing so, the same screen will appear again with the same options: open, save and cancel. Pressing the open button again causes MS Excel to open (as expected) and then a dialog with the following message appears: "C:Documents and Settings<user name>Local SettingsTemporary Internet FilesContent.IE5BIOJDDG5<filename[1].xls> could not be found".
As most users will probably press the Open button, I want to find a solution to this problem.
I am trying to export a dynamically generated table to excel. I have used following code for the same
Response.ContentType ="application/vnd.ms-excel"
On some machines with excel 2000 version it is not working. The problem is that i have coded a session check for the user in that page and page is not getting the session value & it is redirecting the user to homepage for login in that excelsheet itself. That means instead of showing expected report ,excel sheet is showing contents of home page. I am not getting what is the connection of excel version with session.
I am trying to export a result set as an excel spread sheet. Most of the time this works as expected, when a user chooses to save as excel the browser pop-up a save as dialog to allow the user to save the spreadshet with a .xls name. Some times the browser will open up the file as text file within the bvrowser itself? These are my two lines of code to prompt the save as dialog for a Browser:
I am trying to export a recordset to an excel file using the Content Type below in the header.
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
Which works fine however the problem is that when I have a number in a column with a leading zero the zero gets dropped. E.G. 01760942 will be displayed as 1760942 . How can I rectify this?
1.) I've done this using macros in excel but I can't get the macros to run with the security of the xls file. I can't change the security, how can I make that particular macro safe?
2.) Now that I have macros running in excel, i'd like to know how to implement them into my asp page. I can't just copy and paste my macro b/c it wouldn't know what file it's looking for. I need help putting a macro on my page pointing at any given xls (dynamically as they will change)
3.) When running the macro in excel, i have problems with the output. Currently (until i get a better grasp on getting it running) i am using a macro from MSDN called quotecommaexport (which obviously makes a comma separated list of the data from excel) and the problem is when the xls shows ########## instead of the value b/c of lack of space.
It works when I span out the column and shows the value, the correct value is exported. Otherwise, it exports "#############" which does nothing for me. How can i get it to export the value without me physically spanning out the columns to give the value room. (I know this question may not make sense) Code:
The code below (partial) should export a file as Excel when the button near the bottom is clicked. The example I pulled the concept from uses a GridView for binding. I don't need to display it, just export it, so I created ExcelGrid visible=false at the bottom. The Response.Write(strQuery); is never getting executed. I get:
Exception Details: System.Web.HttpException: Control 'ExcelGrid' of type 'GridView' must be placed inside a form tag with runat=server.
I'm almost positive (from what you see below) that my ExcelGrid is inside the form tag, which contains the runat=server.
Any ideas? It works when you pull that code and just run the rest of the form so the runat=server is working for all of the other controls! Code:
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 could not find much information on this topic, but I'm sure there's a way. All the database searching is in place, the recordset has been built, I just need an interface to send data into Excel as opposed to a text file, or to the screen. Code:
I have a webpage that is taking input from a form and using it as criteria to select data out of an sql database. The page displays an html table with the results. The user can then click a button "excel" to open or save the file as an excel document. This works, and everything in the excel document is formatted fine except for the first column which in this case is "Part Number". The problem is that this part number: 883100105100 is displayed like this: 8.831E+11 in excel.
I am not sure how to format the excel cells using the asp/html so that it doesn't try to throw everything into scientific notation. I have thought that maybe if I gave excel a string value instead of a number value then it would fix the problem but I am pretty new to asp and am not sure how to do this. Below is the block that throws everything into excel in the first place. Code:
I have a table having 3 columns. There is a checkbox for each line. I need to get those lines whose checkboxes are checked, and show those lines to another webpage. Is there any way to do that? My concern is that all information in the table are in <tb></tb> pairs without any name tag. Any idea?
Can someone explain to me or give me an example of how I would insert a row into an html table.
I will explain more so you understand what I am talking about.
I'm a newbie working on a dynamic website using asp.
I want to insert records dynamically. There is a command button insert when this is selected I would like a row added to my html table so the administrator can add his records.
The records will also be automatically updated to the original mysql table.
How would I add this row to my html table when the insert button is selected
I have a table created from different queries and display in a asp page. Currently I have to highlight all the cells and copy and paste into a Excel sheet. Is there a way to automatically convert into a excel or csv file?
On the first ASP page I have a form (checkbox) with 20+ different categories. After the user clicks on a few of them, they all have to be transfered on the second ASP page in HTML table. My problem:
If user selects only three categories, they should represent themselves in three differenst columns in my html table(something like Column-Name). If he selects 4, - four differesnt columns in the same table, etc.
So the table has to be 'dynamic'. It should have the same number of categories that the user selected on the first page. Could it be done? After that I should populate every category from a recordset and I know now how to do that.
I have a dynamic html table. I want to write the code to edit rows in the table. Right now I can't change anything in the table. How do I make the rows so they can be selected and changed.
We have a report in html Table form. When he gives print, say the table would take 5 papers to print, he wants the table headers in all pages. Is this possible? I calculated a A4 paper would be of 1090 pixels.
I thought if I could find the height of one table row, then I could do the paging easily. Could it be possible to find the height of a table row.
I have tried to edit table in html page with asp, but I havent succeeded in it. The pupose was to check with "if" function that does the variable fit into certain number array. For example:
if data1 < 100 then "change the colour in a certain cell in a HTML table end if
Is it possible to change with asp the properties in a html table? The purpose was to change the colour in a certain cell if the condition in the if function does not match. And if it is possible.. how I can point to a certain cell and change the colour in it.
I need to create a webpage with an HTML table that keeps track of certain data. I have created the table and hardcoded all the nonchanging cells.
The problem is the data I need to update the table with is FTP'd to a webshare in a .txt format. I need to take this file, parse it and update the table every morning at 745.
I have found ways to do it if the webpage receives a hit, but I still need it to do it on weekends and holidays when we are not in the office, because this file will be overwritten with the new data file the next day.
I currently have a set of documents in a directory that i need to list in a html table. Is there any way to generate the table with the documents listed instead of having to update the table manually everytime a new document is added to the list.
I am using ASP to generate an HTML table from a database. I use FSO to output a file with an XLS extension then open it. I can set the column width and row height; I can set the font family, size, and weight. I know I can include formulas in a "cell".
What else can I do when I generate the table that will take effect when the file is opened in Excel? I'd like to do things like autofit and sorting. The client does allow Office Automation on the server so I can't write to Excel directly.
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 developed some code to export DataGrid to excel base on the html stream technology. But that one works only with worksheet cell. Is there any way to output Excel Chart based on the html stream?
