Re: display excel spreadsheet charts on webpage: the SOLUTION
hello,
thank you vince for your response. i checked the article you referred me
to. it was helpful. i also found a very simple SOLUTION to displaying individual
charts on a webpage. i decided to post the code so that it may help those
who are having the same problem.
this is what you do:
open a connection to your excel workbook from your webpage.
set the chart spreadsheet you wish to see to "visible".
set all other spreadsheets to hide.
set your workbook as read-only if you don't want users to change your data/charts.
here is a sample code:
<html><head>
<script language=vbscript>
Dim objExcel
Sub chartsheet_onclick()
call OpenWorkbook("c:\test\testfile.xls")
End Sub
Sub OpenWorkbook(strLocation)
Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
objExcel.Visible = true
objExcel.Workbooks.Open strLocation
objExcel.UserControl = true
objExcel.Sheets("chart").Visible = True
objExcel.Sheets("sheet1").Visible = False
objExcel.Sheets("sheet2").Visible = False
objExcel.Sheets("sheet3").Visible = False
End Sub
</script>
<title></title></head><body><br>
this is a test page for displaying an excel chart...
<br><br>
<input type=button name=chartsheet value="display excel chart">
</body></html>

Re: display excel spreadsheet charts on webpage: the SOLUTION
Hi
How did you specify the strlocation in your code if the file is on a different
server rather than on your desktop and also if your html/asp file is being
hosted on a different server.. my excel file is on a Novell based network
server and asp pages on a windows based server..
Any help is highly appreciated...

Re: display excel spreadsheet charts on webpage: the SOLUTION
You can just use a fully qualified path name such as \\myNovellServer\myfile.xls
