datagrid to excel question

I have an app with 2 datagrids that are displayed in a page_load event.

I use the following code to render it to an Excel workbook.

sFile = sFile.Replace("/", "-")

ClearControls(DataGrid1)

Select Case RbtnExport.SelectedItem.Value

Case "Excel"

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

Response.AppendHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" & sFile
& ".xls")

Case "Word"

Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-word"

Response.AppendHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" & sFile
& ".doc")

End Select

' Remove the charset from the Content-Type header.

Response.Charset = ""

' Turn off the view state.

Me.EnableViewState = False

Dim tw As New System.IO.StringWriter

Dim hw As New System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter(tw)

' Get the HTML for the control.

DataGrid1.RenderControl(hw)

' Write the HTML back to the browser.

Response.Write(tw.ToString())

I know that I could create another excel spreadsheet and do the 2nd
datagrid, but would like to put the 2nd datagrid in a workbook inside the
same spreadsheet as the first one.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks
SC

nope, not unless you use frames to partition the page. actually a frameset
is a good idea now that i think about it because you can make the borders
seemless so it appears as if it is one page.
