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 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.

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.
I currently have an excel flat database, it contains a computerName and it has a list of parts associated with it next to the cell value of computerName.There values that are offsetted to the right are the parts associated with the computer name. I was wondering through ASP could i have a dropdown of the computerName, when clicking submit it will find the offsetted values to the right.
I have an intranet application written in asp using access as the backend database. My users have requested they be able to download certain data into an excel spreadsheet. I have limited asp experience and could use some help.
Ideally, the user would be prompted to save and name the file (save as dialogue) and then the data would be selected and saved into that file. I know I can use a select statement to select data directly into an excelspreadsheet using:
SELECT * INTO [Excel 8.0;Database=" & lcPathFile & "].[Sheet1] FROM myTable
I retrieve data from the database and display on ASP, then I export these data to a file, like Excel (the best) or text file. Is it possible? I think it is possible, but how can I do that?

Is anyone aware of a 255 character limit when reading data from a particular Excel cell? I'm experiencing when pulling straight text from an Excel spreadsheet, which otherwise works fine. Right at 255 characters, the data is truncated and I only see that bit of information.I've searched Google and came up with a few registry modifications, neither of which fixed the issue. Has anyone else ran into this?
Is it possible to extract data from SQL server to MS Excel ? Say if I have 2 tables (Membership and Profile) and extract some certain datas from those 2 tables; MemberID, Member Name, Birthday, Interest; could it be possible to extract them automatically everyday at 1 AM without me doing it manually?
Perhaps its possible to do it with Stored Procedure? or some other means?
