[flexcoders] Re: Problem in opening the CSV file as Excel file in the browser

2006-08-22 Thread Yasovardhan Babu
Hi Ben,

Thanks for your reply.
I tried with the solution suggested by you.
But, still it is opening a text file only.
Any other solutions? 

Thanks and Regards,
Yasu.

  I had a problem with flex.
 
The problem is that I have .CSV file, which I want to display 
as
 Excel file in the new browser on clicking a button.
 
I tried with the following code.
 
function button_click()
{
   var filePath = C:\test.csv;
  var objLoadVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
 
  objLoadVars.contentType = application/x-msexcel;
 
  objLoadVars.send(filePath, _blank, POST);
}
 
 
It is displaying as plane text file instead of Excel file.
 
Can anyone please help me?
 
Thanks and Regards,
Yasu.

Create a .txt file on the desktop.
Rename it to .csv.
Double click it.
What does it open in ?
