For a website, are Excel scripts better than other programming
Why don't you just try it ?
Tim "Larry" wrote in message ... Thank you for your quick response. You said they could choose to open it in excel. So if we upload the excel file (.XLS) to the website, the customer could choose to open it in excel. Is this correct? Presently, we have a Power Point file on the website, the customer can open and play the Power point file by pushing a button on the website. Can the excel file be opened the same way? Push a button on the website and the excel file opens? -- Larry "Tim Williams" wrote: Comments inline Tim "Larry" wrote in message ... Thank you for your reply. Can we upload the excel file as .XLS to the website. Yes. When the customer enters the website, and presses the button to go to the excel file, can the website download the excel file into the customer's computer's temp folder. Not exactly - the website does nothing other than serve up content: the browser (user) decides what happens with the downloaded content. They could choose to open it (in Excel or their browser, depending on config and settings) or to save it somewhere on their computer. The excel file would auto_open in the customers computer. So we would store the excel file on the website, but download and run the excel file on the PC computer. Would this work? Only if the end-user allows it (and unless it's a https connection I - and I suspect many others - would not) -- Larry "JLGWhiz" wrote: If the file is downloadable to the user computer, yes. Otherwise, no. If the file on the web is designed to respond to a user interaction, it could be described as the code running, but it would only be effective on the web page and not on the user computer. I am sure this is a clear a mud. "Larry" wrote in message ... If someone who has Excel on their computer goes the website and opens the Excel file from the website, will the VBA code run? -- Larry "Tim Williams" wrote: I was going by the title of the post which was "For a website..." It didn't mention downloading, so I took it literally. Tim "joel" wrote in message ... Tim: I think you measn that VBA is not meant for creating websites, it is acceptable for downloading data from websites. table stored on websites with VBA can be downloaded into a speadsheet and manipultes like any other spreadsheet data. "Tim Williams" wrote: VBA is not "for" website programming (since you mention it) Maybe you could elaborate a bit ? Tim "Advice Pro" wrote in message ... I'm new to Excel and I'd like to know since it's more organized are the scripts better than other programming language scripts such as Ajax, JavaScript, Java FX, etc. -- Advice Pro ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Advice Pro's Profile: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/member.php?userid=204 View this thread: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/sh...ad.php?t=92235 |
