Hi Guys,

I'm wondering if its possible to embed an excel spread sheet inside an HTML
page. If I open the HTML page I should be able to view the contents of the
excel spread sheet and I can make changes directly from the HTML page to the
excel sheet and save the changes.

Thanks!!!!

If you want the spreadsheet to be part of an HTML page (and not the whole
page), then you'll have to use the Office Web Components (more info he
http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/webtech/022101-1.shtml). But be warned that
the licensing model for OWC is very strict, and I doubt you'd be able to use
it in a public environment.

If you don't mind that the spreadsheet is the only thing on the page, you
can save your Excel workbook as HTML (Save As Web Page from File menu). In
order for visitors to be able to save changes, either you must have them
authenticate using an account that has write permissions to the file on the
web server, or you must set up the anonymous account for the web server with
write permissions.

A third option is a third-party tool.
http://officewriter.softartisans.com...writer-37.aspx allows you to
read/create Excel documents on the web server without having Excel installed
there (installing Excel on the server is not recommended or supported by
MS).
