One of my "hits" here is an application that can extract the contents of an invoice from our U2 system and produce as an Excel spreadsheet with multiple tabs. The main users of this appliation are our billing and collections staff. They love being able to send a client the spreadsheet representation of a disputed invoice without knowing anything more than the invoice number.
As for formatting data within Excel, I recommend a standardized approach so that your business always provides the same type of output. If you provide the users with csv files, you run the risk of "eric the excel wiz" generating some spiffy colors and font selections that are much different from what "bill the boss" would like to present to the clients. Generating formatted excel spreadsheets with vb6 or .net is not difficult. There are many examples out on the net from which to draw from. ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
