Apex JavaScript file Handling

Question

Hi,
I am trying to use oracle apex to edit an excel file in some specific columns. For that I am using JavaScript with pl/sql.
I've tried it in apex.oracle.com, and worked. But know I want to do it in my database and the same code doesn't work.
Do I need to do any kind of configuration in my apex in order to do it?
Thanks.
Regards,
António

Hi,
The code I am using is the following:
BEGIN
     IF NOT c_menu1%ISOPEN THEN
OPEN c_menu1(:p4_file_id);
     END IF;
     LOOP
          FETCH c_menu1 INTO l_menu1_rec;
          EXIT WHEN c_menu1%NOTFOUND;
     HTP.p ('<script type="text/javascript">');
     HTP.p ('var Excel, Book;');
     HTP.p ('Excel = new ActiveXObject("Excel.Application");');
     HTP.p ('Book = Excel.Workbooks.Open("C:/TEMP/AB.xls");');
     HTP.p ('Excel.Visible = false;');
     /**************************************MENU 1**************************************/
     HTP.p ('Book.ActiveSheet.Cells(10,4).Value = "'||l_menu1_rec.code ||'"');
     --HTP.p ('Book.ActiveSheet.Cells(15,6).Value = "'||l_menu1_rec.mg ||'"');     
     /***********************************END of MENU 1**********************************/
     HTP.p ('Book.SaveAs("G:/TEMP/MyExcel.xls")');
     HTP.p ('Excel.Quit()');
HTP.p ('</script>');
     END LOOP;
CLOSE c_menu1;
