I was having a go at importing a page written using HTML embedded with some ASP and SQL commands into an Excel sheet.
Now I have tried using the command below and no luck. After doing some Google searching I found some people suggesting removing HTML and BODY tags which I did but no luck. Tried using HTML and BODY tags and still no luck and all of a sudden I hit a brick wall. Code:
I've seen lots of posts on this and other boards, but nothing seems to work for me. I need to import data from an Excel spreadsheet using ASP. None of the ranges in the spreadsheet are named. I'm using this code:Code:
<%
Set ExcelConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set ExcelRS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
ExcelConn.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
ExcelConn.Properties("Extended Properties").Value = "Excel 8.0"
ExcelConn.Open "c:inetpubwwwrootaspcalendar est.xls"
set ExcelRS = ExcelConn.Execute ("SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]")
Response.Write(ExcelRS($A$1))
%>
I've tried every variation on "ExcelRS($A$1)" that I can think of - I've seen "ExcelRS(1,1)" used, but that doesn't work... What is the syntax for accessing Excel data by cell coordinates?
I am trying to get the all data from my excel document. I almost can.

View Replies View RelatedIs there a way of importing information from an Excel document or a comma delimited file to a database using ASP.
Has anyone tried doing this before? I'd love to know how you did it. At the moment, I'm thinking of uploading a file, opening it with FSO then creating an array (or something similar) from the content of the file. If there's an easier way of doing this (with components etc) please let me know.

Basically, I have a program that exports information into a html file for viewing of results. The file contains event information, user information, and results of each individual user along with statistics of the event. I want to take this generated file, and import it directly into a sql database (point and click upload of sorts to be user friendly) for further data mining. Code:
am creating a asp page that wiil fetch data from database and export that to excel. not using excel objet, am creating a HTML table to display the data. Now that it displays the data correctly in IE, I want to it to be stored in excel file too.
If I create a file in code, it creates the file. But the file shows up 0 bytes. and holds nothing. Anybody pl guide me how would I redirect my output to the excel file.
What would be involved with having an Excel spreadsheet displayed in an ASP page? The additional problem is that the file name changes on a monthly basis. For example, this month's file name is 'Feb 2005.xls'.
View Replies View RelatedI am working on a project that involves importing IIS Log files into a SQL
Server database (and these logfiles are big --> Some up to 2GB in size).
Up until now I thought that DTS or the BULK INSERT command was the fastest
method out there, but still proves to be long (taking an average of 45mns to
an hour to process each log file).
Because I have to import the log files from three web heads in my cluster
(therefore 2GB log files per server times three servers), this really throws
off the concept of "real time" or near "real time" reporting.
So that begs the question. WHAT IS THE MOST EFFICIENT, AND QUICKEST

i'm trying to have excel open up a webpage which basically contains a
table.
in excel 2000 if i specify content type text/csv this works by
displaying an open/save dialog box and clicking open, launches excel
and displays data as a table (desired result ) however in machines with
excel 2002+ excel simply displays the html code.
trying to specify application/excel opens an excel plug-in inside the
browser which poses a problem becouse the excel has links to pdf file
that obscure the plug-in.
I have an asp page that collects data from a database and then displays it in a table on the page. I also want to be able to put this information into excel. I know how to get the page to load up in excel and then display the data using the following command -:

however I want it so that there is an Extra button on the page that the user can press to transfer the data accross. Does anyone know how to do this?

My boss wants me to develop this page so that users can click on a button alongside an employee's page and this will open up the company Expenses Claim Form with some of the fields automatically filled in, pulled from the same SQL database that the webpage gets its info from.
I have been looking this up for *weeks* now, but the only solutions I can see involve the dot net framework, 3rd-party plug-ins or installing the Microsoft ODBC driver for Excel. My boss will not accept any of these solutions, as we are a huge organisation and this has to work accross the entire system. We're stuck with MS Office 2002, Windows XP and SQL Server 2000.
So far the best I can manage is getting the Excel form to open (but without the fields filled in), which I accomplish using the following code:
Since I updated Office 2000 to SP3, my ASP code has failed when executing this function:
(the HPageBreaks.Add line fails)
function insertPageBreak ( xlsObject, strLocation )
with xlsObject
.Range( strLocation ).Select
.ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.HPageBreaks.Add .Range( strLocation )
end with
end function
Parameters:
xlsObject is a valid object of excel created with:
Set xls = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
strLocation is a string in the form "Axx" where xx is the current row number, e.g. "A54"
I had to uninstall and reinstall Office 2000 without service pack 3 in order for it to work....
My asp/sql server application gets an error, but only when you use the
Excel export option:
<% Response.ContentType="application/vnd.ms-excel" %> (very popular w/
users)
I think somebody entered a string of characters that Excel does not
like:
So I believe (but not sure) some character(s) in a Ntext sql server
field "desc_text" is confusing the Excel file and causing it to error
(and crashes Excel)
So far, I have attempted three fixes with no success
1) Tried to convert the data type in the SQL query:
CAST(sr.desc_text AS VARCHAR(255))
2) Tried to convert the data type in the vbscript:
<% desc_text1 = Cstr(rs.fields.item("desc_text").value)%>
3) Tried append an apostrophe to the beginning of the field so that
Excel would not read it as a formula. (this might have worked, but
Excel does not treat an apostrophe the same from an export as it does
if you typed it in directly)
<%response.write "'"%> <% response.write desc_text1%>
Soliciting all ideas!
Also, if you have any ideas on how to isolate and identify the
specific record and character(s) that is causing the error, that would
be great. I have it narrowed down to a record set of 600 records, and
the error occurs if I include beyond the 130th character position. The
problem does not occur if I use CAST(sr.desc_text AS VARCHAR(129))
Does anyone know where I can find an easy example of how to read an Excel or XML file and automatically populate a table on a ASP page?
I want to create an asp page that has a table on it that reads from a XML or Excel file so I can update the file and the table information changes accordingly. I know this has to be somewhat simple but I cant seem to find any exmaples. I probably am not searching the right keywords or something.
Any suggestions on where to find an example script to do this?
I'm using asp to retrieve data from a server and import that data in a client that uses MSAccess, into a memo field. The text hes line breaks 0D 0A (the usual DOS line breaks). However the client sees these line breaks as two squares!
The strange thing is that when I look at the exported text (yes, I also export text from the client to the server), it also contains the same line breaks. So the exported text from the memo field can look exactly the same as the imported text, and before the export the line breaks are correctly shown als line breaks, but after the import that same line breaks are shown as squares! I would like to see line breaks after the import and NO squares.
Basically, I want to have an asp page that has a button where when you click on it, it opens up a file open dialog box where you can search for any excel file you want to import. Then, once a file is selected, I want to read all the contents of the excel file (from column A) to display into a listbox on the screen (so that each individual row from excel file would be a separate item in the listbox). Also, this data would have to be inserted accordingly into an access database .....
View Replies View RelatedI have 3 asp pages. The first page (login.asp) takes the parameter values(userid, groupid, locationid and deptid) based on the login (validate using a table). On submit the page params.asp is executed. Here the user has to select the filtering.
Then the page results.asp is executed. When the result is in excel format only the parameter value p_attdate (p_attdate is the value on page params.asp) contains a value.
The value of p_gid(p_gid is a session variable) remain null. BUT when the output is in html format, the parameter value p_gid return the correct value. I want the output to be in excel format but the sql statement is returning the wrong result. Only p_attdate is returning the correct value. I think because p_attdate is a form variable.
Can anyone tell me why value of p_gid is always null when the output is in excel format???

How would I import a file thru an asp page and then validate the fields in
