Question On Exporting Data From A Database Using ASP.
I don't know if this is possible, but I have been amazed at what I have
learned from this group so I will throw it out there.
I have an MS Access database that I connect to through .asp pages. Can
I offer a user of my page the ability to export data from the Access
database (either feeding of a table or a query) to their hardrive in an
Excel format?
If it is possible, I have two followup questions.
1: Can you export in additional formats (Access, Word, Notepad, ...)?
2: Can you do this if connecting to a SQL server?

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:

We have a variety of work related forms (overtime sheets etc) that people currently download via our intranet.
What I'd like to do is have a page with a drop down box getting staff names and then tick box's as to which documents you want and it will put the employees name and number on the form and print etc ....
The bit I'm a bit a bit lost on is how would I export my employee name and number from a form to a an area on a word document.
I've exported data to an excell spreadsheet before but never a word document.

Is there a way of exporting some asp generated text to various formats (doc,pdf,csv,xls etc.)? Idealy it should be preformated in order to print it directly (ex. labels).

I've got a code that takes SQL query and creates a downloadable csv file, and it works fine. But, there is data that is getting seperated by commas that I don't want to be seperated. Like "Last Name" that is "Drake, Dr.".
I tried creating a tab delimited file (which I did) but it opens all wacky if I leave it as a csv file, and if I change it to txt then the download box doesn't open. The end users could select all the text and create their own file, but these end users are in desperate need of as much assistance as possible. Here is the code I am using: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.

the below code successfully queries the database for the record with the correct username and password, and then displays the users age and email from the database.
what i need
at the moment the asp returns the details in the form of a sentence on the browser.
however, i shall be exporting the retreived details into flash, so rather then the current way, i would like to declare the fields i have just loaded as something i can export out to flash..such as Response.write (age=myage which will be the flash text box name) or something like that. Code:

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 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 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 trying to take all the messages that are in a public message folder and export them to a database and then from there I can output to a webpage. I have it set up so I can do it all manually.I have to copy them all to a persoanl folder and from there I can export to a database.
I am looking for a way to automatically. Is it going to be possible to do, or will I need to take a look at making a Macro to do it? I havent done any real VB in quite some time, just VBScript in ASP's. I am trying to avoid doing the macro thing.

I have a master table called ad_dump. ad_dump is an Active Directory dump of 20,000 users across the domain. I capture user's logon to filter ad_dump on department so only user's department personnel show.
This ad_dump will supply data for many databases. Therefore, each application requires a user to "choose" which personnel belongs into a local application(personnel). Personnel choice is the ad_dump of personnel of logged on user's department. The user selects choices by checkbox and submits.
How can I collect the form's hidden values and have them inserted into another database? I assume I can use the form collection object but I cannot seem to figure it out. Code:
