Hi,

I made some ASP webpages (intranet of the company) where the first line has as code
So when it finished it asks you to see or save the EXCEL file.

What I want to do is that it automatic prints the EXCEL file on the printer of the Server.

How can this be done? I can do it with TXT files, using the "OPENTEXTSTREM" code. But can´t find the way to do it with Excel file.

Any help is welcome,

Thx

Johny

Well, the problem is that you did not *REALLY* create an EXCEL file, at all.

You really just created HTML and then you asked MS Office to *interpret* the HTML *AS IF* it contained cells in an Excel spreadsheet.

So it's not REALLY an Excel *FILE* until and unless the user SAVES it as such on his/her client computer.

But I don't get it.

If all you want to do is print the "grid" of an excel-style spreadsheet, why does it ever *NEED* to be converted to Excel, at all??? Why can't you just print the HTML???

You have to make an html page with the data you need and print it, instead try to print an excel. ok?

best regards.
