theres an easy way if its a simple data table type spreadsheet your after, this works
like a treat, at the top of your page that produces the data put -
header("Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"file.xls\"");
remember that your sending headers here so they have to be the very first thing to be
sent at the start of the page.
formatting will be maintained and it will basically produce whatever the table / s
looked like in the html page, just like if you did a copy and paste from the web to
excel.

Hi,
I need to turn data extracted from MySQL into an EXCEL spreadsheet
(.xls, not a .txt that is imported into Excel).
Is it possible ?
Thank you.
Christine
