Default Excel from a Server

We have a browser application that we would like to use Excel to print from.
The form is complex and well suited to Excel and the browser print
limitations don't allow us to print the cell borders the way we want to.
However, we don't want the Client PC to have to be running Excel. Does
anyone know it it is possible to have Excel running on our server and print
from it? Thx in advance for any help

If you used VBScript and PDF Printer, you could open up an excel file, file
in the values needed and then print it to a location that the user can then
view it. Just do a google search for Excel VBScriptings or VBA there are
tons of websites with parts and pieces of what you need.

Good Luck!
