Opening excel sheets

Hi,
I have one servlet that is supposed to create an excel sheet. Then I have a couple jsp's with a link to this servlet on each of those jsp's. The content of the excel sheet should depend on wich link has been clicked. My problem is: if I open an excel sheet from one link, and then open another sheet from another link without closing the first one, the new sheet is not created. Is there any solution for this? Thanks

How? Here is the link to the servlet where ExcelTable.java is the name of the servlet file.
Download this table in Excel format

thanks in advance

The problem here is, you have setted the content type as excel sheet and you are writing some String content into the output stream. when excel tries to read the String content it will surely throw some error. Lot of excel APIs are available in the market to generate excel sheets.
you can find one in the below URL.

Installing Control Panel 2/3 causes problems in opening Excel sheets

After installing the control panel 3.0, I can't open Excel sheets properly anymore. A message says that the Excel sheet contains corrupted data and Excel can try to restore them. After confirming this, the excel sheet shows opened but all formating is gone.
I had this issue yet with Control Panel 2.0. After some research on the web I found out that the problem is caused by the CP for Windows. I then switched back to CP V 1.1.4 and the excel sheets opened properly again.
Thanks for any advise. I'm using Windows 7 and Excel/Outlook 2007.

You are downloading software illegally. ShapeShifter is shareware so unless you indicate that you paid for it I don't feel it is appropriate to post your issue in this forum setting.

The following code gets data from an ODBC link to an Excel spreadsheet and displays it as a HTML table. You can modify the table to include <input> fields to update the spreadsheet when the form is submitted.

Open excel sheets in separate windows by clicking link.

Hi,
I have a web page which has a link. When user clicks on the link, a servlet is invoked that creates an excel sheet and opens it in MS-Excel. I used "res.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");" to achieve this.
But every time I click the link it opens up the sheet on the same MS-Excel window. It doesn't open up the excel sheet in new other window.
Now here is my requirement: Whenever user clicks on the link, a new MS-Excel window should open up containing the excel sheet. So if user clicks the link 3 times, then 3 separate window should open up each containing its own excel sheet.
Can anyone help me out in achieving this?
Thanks in advance...

Hi, try this
In JSP/HTML
Export To Excel
In Servlet
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
response.setHeader("Content-disposition","attachment; filename=MyProjectExport.xls" );
In web.xml
<servlet>
    <servlet-name>excelservlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>myPackage.ExcelServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>excelservlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/MyProjectExport.xls</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>Assuming I haven't made any typos obfuscating the real packages, it
should work. I think the step you are missing is to add the servlet
mapping so that the servlet name is MyProjectExport.xls
In the example above, I've made my servlet name match the filename in
the Content-disposition, though in my real application it deosn't seem to
matter that they don't match. In the html, you link to the name of the
servlet, rather than the filename, but if you name them the same, I
guess it won't matter.

Open excel sheet by sheet name .... subvi not closing

Hi all,
I am experimenting with excel and labview and I want to open an excel sheet by its name. I have created a project with a main vi where I hit a button to start the process.
When this button gets hit an event handler opens my subvi that actually asks for a file, then scans all the sheet names and then in this subvi I have another subvi that pops up and gets this sheet names. When I hit OK this one should close and the first subvi should continue. This all works fine and I am able to read the preferred sheet name but the subvi that asks for sheet name to read does not close. When I run this subvi by itself then it closes when I hit ok.
I have added the whole project here so if anybody could have a look at it and tell me what I am doing wrong I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Lieven
Solved!

Opening Excel sheet in Excel Application instead of browser

Hi,
I need to open an excel sheet from a JSP. When i click the link it opens a pop-up which asks open/save. This is fine. but when i click open it opens the excel sheet in the IE itself. I want the excel sheet to be opened using MS Excel Application. This is the piece of code i have used:
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename="+ displayFileName);
Also the pop-up does not show the "displayFileName" as set by me but some other name.
Please help me out regarding this!
Thanks in Advance!!!

I think that for that you have to use java with activeX

or if possible use the runtime library to call the excel executable and send it arguments.

How to send data to an already open excel sheet

I have a simple VI that opens a closed excel file, writes data to it and closes it.
I want to modify it to write data, unconcerned of whether the file is open or closed.
how to do it..
I have attached the VI here..

When you open a file you make a copy of the data on disc and put it in memory somewhere the application that opened it knows about.
In your case a spreadsheet open in Excel will have its file locked for its exclusive use. This prevents the file from getting updates by more than one application which would most assuradly cause unintended consequences (the file would get corupted.)
In other words You only think you want to write data from LabVIEW to a file open for editing in Excel - You really don't want to do this
