excel spreadsheet directly.
Users have an excle spreadsheet with complex functions, macros, formatting
etc. They have data in the database that is accessed via a web applciation.
They would like to use the web app to get the data they want on screen and
then click a button to get that data and put it into specifc cells in the
spreadsheet. is this possible?
Does anyone know how to save an export excel file to the server automatically without any prompting and opening of the excel file?
Because I'm doing archiving, I need to let the user click on the archive button and the exported excel file will be saved directly to the server without opening the file.
I have page for user to update his/her details. What i want is after idle for more than 20 mins, the page will redirect to login page automatically. So that the user knows that his/her session already expired and need to login again.
But it doesn't working. This is because if he/she update the details (after idle more than 20 mins), and click the Submit button, it will go to login page and all the data will be lost. Code:
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 .....
I currently have my database set up so that when a user uploads a file, it writes it in binary in the database. I know the benefits of having a separate file server and storing the path, but unfortunately, I can not do it that way.
I know how to include the file in, lets say, a hyperlink so that any user can click on the file to view it. But, I would like to know how to include the file (mainly pictures) directly into the page as an <img src> Any suggestions?
P.S. Once the information is in the database, these are the commands I use to output the file to a hyperlink. The file that this code is in is "file.asp?Id=" Where the Id is taken from the URL and used to obtain the correct file. I left out all the connection/cmd strings intentionally just show I could show the relevant information:
I have registered a domain, if i want to check my mail i had provision to go to there web server mail page from there i could login and see my emails,

if i enter the username and password it should straight away take me to the email folder(accessing from my home page rather than going to the their web server login page)....
how to print the content of a multiline textbox without taking the content to some other "printer friendly" page. I just wanna send whatevers in the textbox directly to the printer.
I have an Excel database of Names and Email addresses that I have to use to send a monthly automated newsletter to. The thing is that my application uses Access, and I am not sure how I can avoid having to maintain two seperate databases. I have to take the Excel DB and convert it to Access, every time there is an update. Then change field names, and db structure for use in my app.
Do any of you know how I can have it either automated, or made a little less time consuming, and simple to maintain?
I have the page "content.asp" and it is called from the "menu.asp" page. Two page are on diffenent servers and on different Databases. Users who request the content.asp page are authenticated when they enter the "menu.asp" page. So, if another authentication is required when users enter "conent.asp", it is redundent, I think. Finally, I want to reject users requests for content.asp if the page "contnet.asp" is requested directly from URL. Are there ways if the page content.asp is called from URL or the <a> tag in the menu.asp?
I am in the process of building a small Intranet application. Iam using ASP along with access backend on IIS 5.0.
Info will be sent from an HTML form, [an inventory report] various drop down lists, text boxes, etc.
This info from the form is then added to the mdb, but an administrator needs to pull the same form back to add further info to complete the form, [cookies?] and finally it gets exported to excel format and saved on the server. Also an admin page needs setting up so "admin" can confirm when some reports are completed and when others need completing, maybe this could be the way the first part of the form could be stored and pulled back from ? Could it all be done in MS office applications?
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'm keen to learn how to do some simple asp script so that I can access my customer database over the internet from various locations.
I want to know how to write the appropriate script into an html form (I use MS Frontpage as an editor) so that when I log in to my site I will be able to see and edit this database directly on the net without having to download the file for editing, then upload it again until next time.I understand that I will have to save my database as a MS Access file (*.mdb) because this format will work better with asp commands.
If you know of an online Dummies Guide to ASP please let me have the link so I can learn some of the basics without having to bore you with working through all that.
