View Replies View RelatedI am wanting to display a sheet from an excel file. I dont need to change/update it, just a simple display. Somthing like the 'Print Preview' you get in excel (that would be perfect).
i cant display the top row of the excel file. also if i try and access a cell that is empty i get an error. I need to display all cells from A1 - G60 if they have data in them or not.
I've got an application which manipulates data in a spreadsheet using ADODB.RecordSets. This works great and I am able to update the spreadsheet with no problems. However, it doesn't "recalc" the sheet even though the sheet is set for automatic calculation. Is there a way to get the sheet to "recalc"?
I've seen statement like obj.Caculate, but I get an error if I try to use statements like Server.CreateObject("Excel.Application"), so "calculate" doesn't work. Can I send it some keystrokes or get another procedure to kick off calculation?

View Replies View RelatedThe problem is that in XP SP2, the IE instance opened for the vbscript only
page no longer closes when Excel is closed. The user has to manually close
this window. This didn't happen in XP SP1. Obviously there is a security
change, but I have been unable to determine how to reverse it.
Does anyone know how I can get the IE instance to close when Excel closes in
XP2 SP2?

Does anyone know where I can find an easy example of how to read an Excel or XML file and automatically populate a table on a ASP page?
I want to create an asp page that has a table on it that reads from a XML or Excel file so I can update the file and the table information changes accordingly. I know this has to be somewhat simple but I cant seem to find any exmaples. I probably am not searching the right keywords or something.
Any suggestions on where to find an example script to do this?
I am using ASP to open a excel file.
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 want to know if there is a way to get a chart on some excel worksheet and stream it as a binary png or jpg picture to an asp page.

Using regular VB ASP (not .net) and calling an Access database using ODBC, I've generated a recordset based a query... (no big whoop, obviously)
Now I want to be able to open a new XL spreadsheet (client side - we're assuming user has XL) and export that table to it. I've seen some posts about DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet, and CreateObject("excel.application")... I've never actually used them before, so I don't know where to start.
I'd like to have a link on the page with the table to "export to XL"... and then have it open XL (client side) with that table in a spreadsheet.
when user click a button data will be fetched from database based upon condition and it will be exported to multiple sheets of a single excel work book. what I am doing, onclick of button in main page, I am invoking a new asp page through document.location.href=test.asp.
In test.asp page created a instance of excel.applicaion and then fetching data from backend and putting data to different workbook cells of the the excel and at the end making excel.visible=true but the problem is excel file not getting visible on client machine.
But when I remove some server side code and put the rest of code inside vbscripting tag in the main asp page then the excel file becomes visible on client machine. I am not getting the where the problem lies in the first part .
I have a page which streams an Excel spreadsheet to the user. It has worked
fine for 12mths or more, but recently I found out that it wasn't working. I
suspect the problem lies with IIS, but I'm not sure...
When the user submits a form, the page should stream the file to the user -
the user is presented with a standard Open/Save/Cancel dialog, which the
would ordinarily save to their HDD. I have updoaded the code from the live
server to my development machine (IIS5.1) - and this same code works fine.
However, on the live server (IIS6), the user is presented with the dialog
box, but rather than listing myfile.xls, it lists mypage.asp as the file to
be downloaded.I think this must be an IIS6 issue but I don't know what. Some time before
the problem was noticed, work had been done on the live server, but AFAIK
nothing was done that was *intended* to affect this application.

Does anyone know how to create an attachment using a stream in classic
ASP.I can see that it can be done in ASP.Net as per the article below:

After the latest security update, is it still possible to use adodb.stream
on the server side?
I'm using
file.OpenAsTextStream(ForReading, _
TristateUseDefault)
and then i read some lines.
Line = TextStream.readline
Then when i finished reading it i need to go to the begiining and read some
lines again.But i dont see how to go back to the begining.
I mean, Is there a way to go back to the first line of the file if i
allready read some lines
We have an application, written in ASP, that uses the ADODB.Stream to be
able to open files and write byte arrays to the Response object. If one of
our administrators patches the web servers this application runs on in
Windows Update, I'm screwed, right? You've essentially just disabled this
COM object, for not only its evil purposes, but its useful ones?
Ok, I'm stumped on something that really shouldn't be this hard. I've
created some cool code to transform a dataset via XSLT into SpreadsheetML
(XML for Excel) and I'm storing the physical file on a file server. Now... I
currently provide a hyperlink to view/save the file, but this won't work
outside the network.
So, I've been working on making this
hyperlink/linkbutton/button/whatever stream the file back to the user. How
in the name of Zeus's butthole do I do this?
So, in simpler terms; how do I take a physical file and stream the sucker
back? Ideally, I'd like this to work just like it does now with the physical
link to the file. Click the link, it prompts you to save/open/cancel.
Clicking Open pops up Excel and looky-looky, you see the file.
