View Replies View RelatedThe title looks a bit odd, but it is what I really need
I have different users, which I get the information from them in an ASP page, the data is stored in a SQL database, one of these users is authorized to check and close the data entry.
Once the data entry is closed, an ‘Excel’ file should be generated according the entered data and be placed in a directory for use of other users.
My problem is how I can generate the mentioned ‘Excel’ file by clicking a button in an ASP page and transfer the recorded data in it.
I have to add a feature, on click of button file open as dialog box will open and user can attach a excel file. Then we can able to validate, actually file attached or not, it is excel file or not etc.. if everything is ok app will will do further processing on the file.. Can anybody suggest me the easy way out without licencing issues.. Since vbscript and jscript is used any fee tool available...I tried to do it through MSComDlg.CommonDialog but it is a licenced version. Also I tried to do it through <input type=file>
but here one text box and browse button gets added..
One of the pages of my application opens an Excel 2000 workbook in a
new window using Javascript. The workbook is read only and I use a
window.open command to open the workbook. On the workbook's
BeforeClose event I have a code to avoid the 'Save' dialog: Me.Saved =
True
If I open the page locally, change some content and close the
workbook, the 'Save' dialog does not appear, as expected. As soon as I
open the workbook on the web, the 'Save' dialog still appears when I
close the window. I need to allow my users to change the contents of
the workbook but they cannot save the workbook. Is my approach wrong?
How can I avoid the 'Save' dialog?
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")
Else
strfile = Request.Form("month") & Request.Form("day") & " Misses" &
".xls"
Set fs = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If fs.FileExists("http://website/webreports/Misses/" & strfile) THEN
Response.Redirect("http://website/webreports/Misses/" & strfile)
Else
Response.Redirect("http://website/pages/missedreport.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

excel file requested. The excel file to open will depend on the day,
month, and year chosen in the form.

I have a link that goes to XLS files for users but I don't want to users to be able to save the XLS files to there local drive.

View Replies View RelatedHow do i export content of an ASP page to multiple worksheets of an excel workbook. For example i'm having an asp page which contains a combo box. The user selects a center from the combo box and results are displayed. On clicking 'Export to Excel' i'm exporting the page to excel.
If the user is going to select 'All' option from the combo box, results for all centers are displayed. Now while clicking 'Export to Excel', the content of each center should be exported to a single worksheet. If 10 centers are there, then the workbook should contain 10 worksheets (sheet1, sheet 2... sheet10).

I have a bunch of Excel reports that I would like to display on my company's intranet. The reports contain priviledged information, however. My plan was to have a page with a dropdown box so someone could pick the report they need to view. This page can be secured with a session object, etc. But what is to keep an unauthorized person from accessing a file by typing. Is there something I could configure in IIS? Set permissions?
View Replies View Related1.) 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:
