Edit Distributed Reports And Integrate With Excel

NL
Hi:

I am faced with 2 problems: the first one, I would like to know if it
is possible to allow people to edit a report produced by Access (when
I say edit I mean the result not the structure). I tried by exporting
into Excel but the format is completely lost which makes it very hard
for the user to understand the data. I had better luck with .rtf but
I need to be able to link the data contained in this report with
formulas contained in a different Excel workbook.

My second problem is, is the first one is feasible, is there a way to
integrate an Access report to Excel without loosing all the format?

Any suggestion?

No.
You may be better off designing your "report" in Excel, and using
Automation to populate it.

At the end of the audit cycle, these adjustments are used to compute the revised taxes due. This computation is done in a fairly complex, but accurate and easy to use, spreadsheet. In the spreadsheet, there is a sheet that lists out all...

Hey everyone, another question for the list. In particular i'm looking for comments on some of the distributed technologies supported in python. Specifically, I'm looking at XML-RPC, RPyC, CORBA, and Twisted. Before you offer any comments let me talk about what i'm doing a little bit. Right now I'm creating an execution framework. The framework aims to allow users to create a modular system by which engineers can mitigate some of the...

Hi everyone, I found the Access reports too limited to do what i wanted so i created a module to export a crosstab query to an excel file, and then i modify it as i want. My problem is that i created a unique query for every "sector", saved them, and select the right one according to the user's choice. What i'd like to do is to create the crosstab query directly in VBA, change the WHERE part for the sector i want to show and output it...

One of the requirements of our ASP.NET 2.0 web application (developed with visual studio 2005) is to create reports in form of excel spreadsheets with data coming from Sql Server 2005 database. Some points are as follows: 1) User should be able to filter data included in reports like choose among cycles, cars etc or all of them (I.e. Sql query is generated dynamically based on user choice) 2) Data is retrieved from database and...

I am not that familiar with Crystal Reports, but having read some other posts I know that the way to integrate the API with Python is through the COM interface provide by win32all. However, I have been unable to find any other information on how to get started. I've used the COM interface before in integrating Excel and a couple of other things. So I am familiar with how that works. But there are at least 40 options dealing with Crystal...

I've used Crystal Reports for years and whilst it's been a love-hate relationship, it does it job. But I think it's become rather bloated over time and I have one big issue with it - the installation on a web server requires installation of a huge MSI which puts stuff all over the web server, not just in the web folder. This is fine (well fine-ish) if you host your own server but I'm developing an application at the moment which we'd...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
