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:

View Replies View Related1.) 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:
I am trying to pull data from a DB an export it to the user in a comma delimited text file.I found this.Do I need to save the actual textfile or is it possible to stream the text file out to the browser?

View Replies View RelatedI am exporting excel files using Asp, its opening and displaying data when I used Office 2000 and above versions.
I have faced a issue when I opened the same files with Office 97. It displays the data in junk characters.
Please advice, since my client have only Office 97 he don’t wants to upgrade it. I have to fix this issue as soon as possible. Code:
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:
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
Response.AddHeader "Content-
disposition", "attachment;filename=ReportsName.xls"
I do not use any HTML to write out the Response from the Database rather just plain text and VBTab for a new column and VBCrLf for a new line.
....is it the posssible to:
format a field as "currency" or "number"?
format a field as a formula?
I create my sheet as a table
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
response.write('<tr><td>blahblah</td></tr>');
is there any other way?
I have a report that the user can view either on a page with HTML or they can open it in Excel.
I am attempting to change the content type with this statement:
response.contentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
But it appears that when I do this I lose all my request variables and my recordset is null.
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?
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.
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 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 offer a user of my page the ability to export data from the Access

View Replies View RelatedI have two questions on exporting data to Excel using ASP (w/o converting
formatted excel file into web page and then plug in the dynamic data):
1. Can we export data into different sheets at Excel?
2. Can we do graph at export?
I know the basic way of doing this when you have a static set of
spreadsheets but I need to be able to process different spreadsheets
every day. These spreadsheets are sent to us by an outside auditing
firm without named ranges. They have a consistent format. Is there a
way to read a specific set of cells without having a named range? Or
is there a way to name a range with ASP? I am open to any options
here. Going through and creating named ranges is the only thing that
wont work sicnce it would take more work than processing the files by
hand.
