$sql = "SELECT * FROM employee";
$result = mysql_query($sq l) or die(mysql_erorr ());

$tsv = array();
$html = array();
while($row = mysql_fetch_arr ay($result, MYSQL_NUM))
{
$tsv[] = implode("\t", $row);
$html[] = "<tr><td>".impl ode("</td><td>", $row)."</td></tr>";
}
$tsv = implode("\r\n", $tsv);
$html = "<table>".implo de("\r\n", $html)."</table>";

$fileName = 'mysql_to_excel .xls';
header("Content-type:applicatio n/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Content-Disposition:att achment; filename = $fileName");

Hi, I have a little problem with encoding. Was hoping maybe anyone can help me to solve it. There is some amount of data in a database (PG) that must be inserted into Excel sheet and emailed. Nothing special, everything works. Except that non-ascii characters are not displayed properly. The data is stored as XML into a text field. When I use pgsql it's displayed good in the terminal. Now I run my script and print data

Hello, I am working on a project where I need to be able to grab the data from an Excel spreadsheet and create a new table in my database based on the columns in the spreadsheet. After the table is created then I need to fill the table with the data from that spreadsheet. I am using ASP.NET 2.0 and SQL 2000 for my database. What would be the best way to do this? Should I go Excel to XML or Excel to a Dataset?
