Export to excel in ASP - ASP / Active Server Pages

Hi every one ,
I am using ASP to export database data to excel file. However, the database table contains special charecters like arabic charecters which is not being exported to excel properly. Is there anyway to acheive this.
can any one help ??
I used the below way:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
<%@ Language=VBScript CodePage = "1256"%>

<html dir="rtl">

<head>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1256">

<title>New Page 1</title>

</head>
 
<body>

<%
 
Dim objConn, objRS, strSQL

Dim x, curValue
 
Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

objConn.Open "DRIVER={Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls)}; IMEX=1; HDR=NO; "&_

    "Excel 8.0; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("fff.xls") & "; "

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM A1:Q10000"

Set objRS=objConn.Execute(strSQL)

%>

and the result of arabic characters was "???????"

and I changed the code to the below code:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 <% @ CodePage = "1256"%>

<%

Response.Clear

Response.Buffer = true

Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
 
%>

<%

Dim objConn, objRS, strSQL

Dim x

Dim curValue 
 
Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

objConn.Open "DRIVER={Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls)}; IMEX=1; HDR=NO; "&_

    "Excel 8.0; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("excelfile.xls") & "; "

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM A1:Q10000"

Set objRS=objConn.Execute(strSQL)

Response.Write("<table border=""1"">")

Response.Write("<tr>")

......

..

..

but the result was the same

Thanks

asp by default moves strings as Ascii characters, and since arabic does not use american standard characters (that's what the ASC of ASCII stands for) this is causing the problem. In order to work with other characters you will probably need to use unicode or binary mode. I am not an expert in using those, in fact I generally try to avoid it, but you could look up "ado.stream" which allows you to open and manipulate non-ascii data. good luck.
