View RepliesIs it possible to set a cell property in Excel from an ASP page. We have numerical data that is taken from a database and then displayed in Excel. I would like ideally all the data to be set at 2 decimal places, is there anyway of setting this from the ASP page?
View Replies View RelatedI came across a problem when importing my data results into Excel. The whole table outputs perfectly but a particular field which is generally large (13 characters long) presents as some random integer which shouldn't be the case. I click on Tools -> Format Cells and change its value to number and to 0 decimal places and great it works.
Am I able to do this before I get into Excel? Or would this always have to be done by the user?
Is anyone aware of a 255 character limit when reading data from a particular Excel cell? I'm experiencing when pulling straight text from an Excel spreadsheet, which otherwise works fine. Right at 255 characters, the data is truncated and I only see that bit of information.I've searched Google and came up with a few registry modifications, neither of which fixed the issue. Has anyone else ran into this?

View Replies View RelatedI an using ASP to read a database table and generate an HTML table
which is save via FSO with a file extension of .xls which opens up
in MS-Excel. I am inserting several lines of text into a cell and would
like to force a line break between them.
I recorded an MS-Excel macro so see how Alt-Enter was captured
which turned out to be Chr(10) which is the same as vbLf (right?)
I tried inserting that in character in the text but it didn't show up as
a line break in MS-Excel.
I had created a macro to read data from an excel sheet and write the values to a text file. I had used "ActiveSheet.Range("GB" & k).Value" command to read the values from the excel.some cells in the excel sheet is having two lines value and four lines data, the text file is generating that value in a single line. (Ex. the cell value in address column is in four lines and should display in four lines in the text file generated from the macro)
Can i do something in the excel sheet or in vb script to read the address value line by line and write line by line in text file?
I have to upload one excel file. In that excel file I need to check the availability of data in particular cells and also the worksheet name. If the data is not available at particular cell, say for eg: $F1, an error should be thrown to user saying that the data is manadatory. How to do that? How to read the particular cell in ASP? If anybody knows the code, please send the same.
View Replies View RelatedI am displaying the table using ASPGRID.In Edit mode,the column2 displays an array of values.On selection of a value from Column2 the column3 value should be automatically populated based on the Column2 value.
The cell change event of column2 should be captured and display the column3 values based on the column2 value. Is there any way to track the cell change?
I am not sure if this is possible but is there a way to change the color of a datagrid cell when a condition is met? For example, let's say if percent_changed >10 then change cell color to orange if percent_changed >25 then change cell color to red.
View Replies View RelatedI have a table with coloured cells. I want to print out the table via IE with the coloured cells. But the outcome of the table does not have the cells coloured.
Are there ways to force out the colouring of the cells in the print outs?Either via php/asp/css or any means.
My asp page pulls from the database into a table for example
Name ITEM1 ITEM2 ITEM3
AName AITEM ANOTHER SOMETHING
What i want to do is create a mouseover based on what that content is, rather like when you hold your mouse over a image and view what the alt tage says i want it to display a short description of what the item means: I.E
Name ITEM1 ITEM2 ITEM3
AName AITEM ANOTHER SOMETHING <---- users mouseover "Something = Something that has a description"
This has to be dynamic based on the value in the table cell
Anyone have any ideas?
I have a basic page for which I have included some of the code for at the
end of this message. It may not run correctly as I have cropped out a lot
of code.
I am trying to handle the click event for a cell. From the code you should
be able to see that I am handling the mouse over event and would like to
link to another page via the cell click.
I addition, but not too important at the moment, I would like to pass a
string or two across to the called page. For example link to the next page
and within that page identify which cell was clicked and possible pass a
string for the image used in the clicked cell. Code:

View Replies View RelatedI've an asp page which brings back a query and displays it in a table. The
query takes around 30 seconds. Once the page displays they will have an
option to send it to excel.
From the examples I've seen they all require the
query to be re-ran again in asp (i.e. server side scripting) and as it takes
30 seconds to start with I want to try and take out the repeat of the query.
Does anyone know of any way you can do this in asp by passing the already
executed table to asp or via any other method?

View Replies View RelatedI have an ASP file which is opened in MS Excel.
I have used the "formatNumber" function to set the number
of decimals for variables which are displayed.
however Excel cuts off any zeros at the end.
e.g 4.650 displays as 4.65
the number of decimals I want to display to varies across
the page, e.g. I cant say "display the whole with 3
decimal places"
Is there any code I can put in my ASP page to stop Excel
truncating zeros at the end?

View Replies View RelatedI'm working on some reports, and have added the ability to
"download" the reports to excel. Not a big deal, fairly straight forward.
However, PHB wants to be able to create some pivot tables from said reports
(again.. no biggie) and when he goes to save the file, Excel wants to save
the file as a web page instead of and Excel spreadsheet.
Now.. I know the simple thing here is to just pick Excel from the drop down
box in the save as dialog.. but.. PHB would "prefer" to not have to do that.
Has anyone been able to jump this hurdle before? My good friend google
hasn't turned anything up. My preference is to give PHB the middle finger..
but alas.. the paycheck is keeping me from doing that.

I need on-site manager's to be able to view a list of records on our website
(which they already can do). They need to be able to select any/all fields
and then export these items to an excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet will
have dynamically created columns/rows to append and life is good.
What's the best way to go about this? I've used DTS to do this before, but
it's been a long time and I can't remember if there's a way to handle this
kind of stuff on a dynamic basis.
I guess my real question is: Is there a way to do this via ASP or should I
stick with a more SQL based approach?
Is it possible to copy all info on a page into excel so that it can be sorted?? I know how to get the page to load automatically into excel, using the -:
Code:
<%
response.contentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
%>
however I lose some functionality if I do this, i know i could add a button that just re-runs the pages to load the info into excel, however some of the pages may take a while and I want to reduce time and load on the server. So I justed would like to know if it is possible using a script of somesort so that clicking a button will copy the whole page and then paste it into excel??
I need to write an ASP page that will allow users to upload an Excel file,
the contents of which should then be imported into an SQL database.
Problem I am facing is how to do this efficiently. So far I have a page
that
will accept an upload, then display the data from the Excel file, my first
thought was to loop each row, then run an update/insert based on the data
found...Obviously this is not going to be very efficient, I'd exepect time
outs often
Has anyone got any ideas to get round this?

Is it possible for me to send the output of an ASP file to an Excel Sheet
View Replies View RelatedI can connect to an Excel worksheet and get records with no problem, if
I know the worksheet's name. However, when my users upload their excel
files, I don't know what the active sheet they want to work from is
called.
I have two options - either force them all to give the saem name to
every worksheet they upload, or providing them with an input field
where they can provide the name of the relevant worksheet
Rather than force my users to name all their worksheets "sheet1", is
there a way I can use ASP to find out the names of the worksheets in a
workbook?
