aspx_professional thread: Using VSA within an .aspx page....


Message #1 by "Matthew P. Seltzer" <Matt.Seltzer@e...> on Mon, 23 Sep 2002 20:46:51
Hello, all,
  I would like to know how to use VSA within an .aspx page to create a 
kind of embedded macro which gets evaluated at run-time.  What I have done 
is to use the server-side Table, TableRow and TableCell objects to 
construct a web-based pseudo-spreadsheet with certain fixed cells, whose 
calculations are performed by .aspx page code.  However, I also want to 
give users the ability to dynamically add a row to the table *and* provide 
a simple algebraic formula on the fly, using cell references, for each 
cell.  I recall reading somewhere that VSA (the successor to VBA) fully 
integrates with .NET, and can be used for this purpose...don't know of 
anyone who has done this, however.
  For example, I would like my users to be able to add, say, a 26th row, 
row 'Z', with four cells, 1,2,3, and 4.  The formulas might look something 
like Z1 = Z1 + Y1, Z2 = Z2 + Y2, etc.  VSA code would then operate on 
these expressions accordingly.
  Anyone have any experiences with this that they would care to share?

Thx,

Regards,
