Hi
How can I Export an HTML Table to excel?
My goal is a button, and when the user clicks this button a popup appears
asking the user to 'open' or 'save' the generated Excel file.
Actually I'm exporting by rendering my table to an htmlwriter and sending
this to excel. This is working nearly perfect. There's a problem with Excel's
auto-formatting of cells.
Excel is changing the content of my cells. '1.23' is getting 'Jan 23',
'true' gets 'TRUE' and so on. Always if Excel recognizes a format it knows,
it changes the content.
How can I prevent Excel from doing this?
I want my content 'as is'. Means it shouldn't be changed.
If I need to change my export (creating a excel workbook and sheet in
asp.net) I need at least the coding framework to get one cell filled, because
all my attempts in doing this went to an exception :(
Here's the actual piece of code I'm using:
Dim sw As System.IO.Strin gWriter = New System.IO.Strin gWriter
Dim hw As System.Web.UI.H tmlTextWriter = New HtmlTextWriter( sw)
Dim str_temp As String = "attachment;fil ename=dtsReport _" &
System.DateTime .Today.Month & "-" & System.DateTime .Today.Day & "-" &
System.DateTime .Today.Year & ".xls"
Response.Clear( )
Response.AddHea der("content-disposition", str_temp)
Response.Conten tType = "applicatio n/ms-excel"
tbl_temp.Render Control(hw)
Response.Write( sw.ToString())
Response.End()

thanks for the reply.
but in my Post there was a little bit more precise question. With google I
find how to simply export the data. As you see in my post, I am actually able
to export my data.
The problem is, that it isn't correctly formatted. Means the strings
themselves aren't correct, because Excel auto-formats them after reading my
export.
And if it's necessary to create the complete sheet via vb.net and send the
sheet or xls to the client, I need a good and clean example, which simply
fills one cell and sends the generated data via response to the client.
because the solutions from your google post didn't work for me.

Hi, I have a webpage that is taking input from a form and using it as

I have a button in my html page for exporting to excel files using the
RenderControl function. When the table generated is small in rows size it
works fine, but when there are much more rows (more than 5000) the excel loss
format in the last rows mainly in Rowsan or Colspan property for the table.
This is the code I'm using
Response.Clear();
Response.Buffer=true;
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel";
Response.Charset = "";

Hi There,
I am trying to export a recordset to an excel file using the Content Type
below in the header.
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
Which works fine however the problem is that when I have a number in a
column with a leading zero the zero gets dropped.
