Good Day All,
Sorry if I am posting in the wrong forum, hopefully someone will be able to
push me in the right direction. What I am trying to accomplish is allowing a
client to upload an Excel file and then I need to access the Excel file
without saving the file directly to the server. What I am eventually going to
do is save the Excel data into a database. Here is a sample of what I am
trying to do, and I may be way off track here.
if ( filMetricFile.P ostedFile != null )
{
// Get a reference to PostedFile object
HttpPostedFile _metricFile = filMetricFile.P ostedFile;
// Get size of uploaded file
int nFileLen = _metricFile.Con tentLength;
// make sure the size of the file is > 0
if( nFileLen > 0 )
{
// Allocate a buffer for reading of the file
byte[] _metricData = new byte[nFileLen];
// Read uploaded file from the Stream
_metricFile.Inp utStream.Read(_ metricData, 0, nFileLen);
OleDbConnection ExcelConnection = new OleDbConnection (
@"Provider=Micr osoft.Jet.OLEDB .4.0;Data Source="
+ _metricFile + ";Extended Properties=Exce l 8.0;");
ExcelConnection .Open();
//Do something with the ExcelConnection
}
}
And of course I am sure you can see I am missing something. When I try the
ExcelConnection .Open() I will get a an error stating that the object is read
only.
So I’m not sure if what I am doing is even possible, but any help would be
greatly appreciated. I just want to process the Excel file while in memory
and not have to save the file directly to the server first.
Thanks,
Jake 1 2825

I don't believe there is going to be an easy way to do this. Excel
runs as a separate process, and you can't just pass it a pointer or a
reference to a block of memory sitting in the web application.

I am doing an aspx application and need to let my users be able to edit the
information in my database by the page. My first Idea was to let them export
the information to an excel file at local machine where they can edit it och
then upload the file by the page again to save down their changes down to the
database.
Now, this is the code I am using to Upload from sql to excel :

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
