RE: [flexcoders] Excel Export

[Jim Robson]

Steve,   Not sure what you mean by “true” Excel files, but CF does natively provide the ability to generate .xls files using the cfcontent tag:   http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=ColdFusion_Documentation&file=part_cfm.htm   -Jim   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steve Gustafson Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2006 12:39 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Excel Export   The Time Tracker application is not really exporting to excel.  it is just saving HTML with a .xls extension. ColdFusion does not have a native way of generating true Excel files either. As far as I know, the two ways to create native excel files on the server side is using COM, or POI-HSSF. POI-HSSF is part of the Apache-Jakarta project, open source, and plays nicely with ColdFusion MX or any other J2EE server. Check it out here: POI-HSSF Gus On 6/12/06, vestcomprogrammer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Does anyone know how to export to excel, like they do on the timetracker application on the showcase page on http://labs.adobe.com/showcase/.
