When I try to open an Excel file from ASP thro' HREF it works fine. But i give the same file in Response.Redirect it says "page cannot be displayed" even when the file exists. Is this related to server configuration?
I have a website set up that can pull data from Access database tables and display them on the webpage depending on users' selection. Is it possible to have ASP open up Microsoft Excel and dump the data into it, plot graphs, calculate averages, etc.?
Can anyone help with this? Here is the code I am using. The problem is, where it checks if a file exists, it always goes to else. Even if the file is there, it won't open the file, goes straight to else part of statement.
<% If Session("strLogID") = "" Then Response.Redirect("http://website/pages/login.asp")
I am creating a webpage and have a form where a visitor will choose a day, month, and year. I want to pass the data from the form into an asp page which will process it and put it into a string and open the excel file requested. The excel file to open will depend on the day, month, and year chosen in the form.
is it possible to open word or excel from an asp page in the client side having word or excel installed only on the server side?if possible, can u post an example ?
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 the following code at the top of my page. Is there a way to force Excel to open the spreadsheet? Presently, it opens within the browser window. I know it can be saved etc., but I would rather have Excel receive the data.
I've noticed that Internet Explorer adds a number in square brackets to files downloaded from the internet and opened directly (i.e. by clicking 'Open' and not 'Save'). This creates a big problem with downloading Excel spreadsheets as square brackets are not a valid filename character inside Excel worksheet name.
When I click open, it opens the excel sheet with the sheet name as .xls[Sheet and the excel filename as Sheet[1].xls.
Then we get the following error....
While renaming a sheet or chart, you entered an invalid name. Try one of the following:
- Make sure the name you entered does not exceed 31 characters. - Make sure the name does not contain any of the following characters: : / ? * [ or ] - Make sure you did not leave the name blank.

I have an application that generates PDF documents (from an ASP page). In some cases, I need to generate a PDF then provide a link to that PDF from the web page - this I can do fine. In other cases, I want to generate the PDF, but then immediately open the PDF in the browser; in this case, once I have generated the PDF, I am simply using 'Response.Write MyPDFPath' to open the document.
However, for some people this doesn't work, but for some it does. And I can't figure out why results are different. In both cases, the browser address changes to match the URL for the PDF document, but in some cases, all you can see is a blank screen. If you click on the Refresh/Reload button, the PDF displays perfectly - so it's not a show-stopper, but it is a bit of an inconvenience.
Has anyone got any ideas why this may be happening? Is there a better way of opening the PDF? I thought of streaming directly to the client, but that would present the user with an Open/Save/Cancel dialog, which although is more intuitive, it's hardly any easier than clicking on Refresh.

In our ASP page, we call XMLHttp to download XML files. When calling our page using localhost (localhost/myWebSite/myPage.htm), it works, but when calling using the IP address of the web server (xx.x.x.xxx/myWebSite/myPage.htm), I got "Permission denied" error in the HTTP.Open statement.
I am looking for an open source, very simple CMS that allows an administrator to add pages, news articles, and maybe a staff directory. We don't need new users to signup, or comment, or anything along those lines. Maybe a wysiwyg editor included. Just for a homepage, a news section (that may include many sub-cats, pages).
