Re: excel files

[Joe Tseng]

I don't know if anyone would be interested in this but I'm doing something right now using CF and Excel but I'm using XML and SOAP rather than DSNs (my questions in this list earlier were regarding this little effort of mine).  I created a CFMX web service that would pass an XML string via SOAP to an Excel spreadsheet and the XML would be parsed by VBA to populate a worksheet.

I figured the benefits to this method are:
1 - You can output the results to anything that's SOAP-enabled
2 - Access to the data using this WS can be restricted to only registered users of my associated portal
3 - I wanted to see if it could be done :)

I'd be happy to share what I've got so far if anyone's interested.
