RE: [flexcoders] Excel, Flex & Database

Wed, 05 Jul 2006 08:06:08 -0700

Yea darron,

 

My question was not loading xls file into Flex Client. My question was how can we integrate flex data services to xls file so if I add record in excel file  and click on save button will reflect changes in database.

 

I know its possible with flex data services..i even saw video of it when fabridge was introduce, currently adobe has took off video from the website. I remember it has source codes too.

 

Do you know how to that or any suggestions on it?

 

With Regards,

Yes, it's possible for Flex to load Microsoft Excel data. However, it's
not easy. You have to write a custom parser for the .xls file format.
You can pull the raw binary data in via URLLoader setting it's
dataFormat to DataFormat.BINARY, and then parse the .xls data into
something usable for the Flex client.

See Jim Cheng's discussion on it here:
