Formatting Excel using ASP

I am creating a .csv file using ASP. For one column ,I am setting the datatype as NUMBER and no of decimals as 2. Yet when the file is created values like 200.00 and 1.00 get displayed as 200 and 1. Values like 1.11 or 20.12 get displayed correctly. The column datatype becomes GENERAL.
I dont want the decimal zeros to be chopped off.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

If you can skip using CSV and use HTML, you can apply a style to the TD cells that contain your decimals and Excel will correctly interpret them. To do this, save a sample Excel worksheet as an HTML file and look at the CSS class declarations; they contain mso-format directives that specify things like "0.00" and all works well when opening in Excel.

Don't forget to add the <meta name=ProgId content=Excel.Sheet> directive int he <HEAD> section of your HTML file.

SSL without Certificates in .NET

Does anyone have code for using secure sockets (SSL) for Web services without certificates? The client wants to use SSL but the setup requires us to use a username and password rather than a certificate. Every sample that I've found uses certificates.

How to Post Data to a different domain/url

I am trying to figure out how to send data and my customer to my banks web site to enroll for paying their bills online.

The post string that I am suppose to use is:

https://banks_web_site.com/enroll?id=12345&name=Customer&accountid=98765&backurl=https://my_web_site.com/return.aspx

The bank will return to me the following info and my customer (so they can continue the payment process) via https://my_web_site.com/return.aspx?return=0&enroll_id=765431

I will be using VB. I'm having trouble trying to get this to work, any help would be appreciated.

Another thing that has me stumped is if I do what the bank calls a payment search, I send to them with no return url:

https://banks_web_site.com/pay_search?id=12345&&enroll_id=765432&days=2

They will return the following:

0:::
7777:1:1123123123:VISA:987554
8888:1:1231238744:AMEX:876454

Unlike the first example, the returned info is not qualified by a query string name. How do you receive this data ?

Hi You can Define your submit buttons as following

<input type=submit name=act value=do1><br />
<input type=submit name=act value=do2><br />
<input type=submit name=act value=do3>

then in your PHP code check like this

switch($act /* or $_REQUEST['act']*/)<br />
{<br />
case "do1":<br />
   //some code to handle first action<br />
   break;<br />
case "do2":<br />
   //some code to handle 2nd action<br />
   break;<br />
case "do3":<br />
   //some code to handle 3rd action<br />
}

depend on the submit button has been clicked, the value of act will change.

you can do in another way too. You may have different forms for each submit button.
If you have some common values for each forms then you can use javascript function for getting that value. You can pass different action case for each button.

Hi Wow PHP! congratulation Big Grin | :-D

It seem you are using IIS, you most add .php extension to IIS configuration, & tell IIS to opne .php file with c:\php\php4.exe (depend on your PHP version & installation path).
If you want to use php & does not need ASP, I suggest to use Zend Studio Server with Apache, or if you want to use IIS use Zend Studio Server on IIS ,It enable Debuging & some othere features. you can fined in in http://www.Zend.com[^]

Are you trying to run the PHP script as CLI or HTTP???

Look into using phpDev[^]

It's a complete easy to install web server setup...

MySQL, PHP and Apache ready to go...

Then you can access your PHP scripts via your browser of choice by using your localhost or loopback address..

http://localhost/index.php

And it runs like it would on the internet Smile | :)

You can do one more thing that if you have done all things with changes in IIs,

You can just do right click on the php file, select php editor and check that always open in.. checkbox. Now press ok and you will get your file in that php editor only.

I know it's a silly answer but sometimes this silly things left from powerful mind.

Using a COM object from a .NET web service

DavidWilson19741-Nov-05 0:42

1-Nov-05 0:42

Hi guys!

I'm developing my first web service, have stumbled a little and was wondering if anybody can offer any suggestions.

I've setup an autogenerated managed C++ web service using visual studio .net....I'm exporting and can use basic methods from the webservice without any problems.

What I really want to do is get my web service method to call methods on a COM object I've written. I've used this COM object many times from managed C++ without any problems by accessing it via an assembly that was generated using tlbimp.

Any web service method that attempts to instantiate my COM object fails and returns an error 500 to the client browser.

Basically, this works -

String __gc* MyWebClass::FindAddress()
{
return S"Address Not Found";
}

but this returns error 500 -

String __gc* MyWebClass::FindAddress()
{

SimpleATLObjectLib::TesterClass *myTester =
new SimpleATLObjectLib::TesterClass ;

return S"Face Not Found";

}

I'm assuming my problem is something to do with security, some IIS setting or the assembly/COM .dll files not being in the correct place but am having trouble figuring out whats going on.

Could anybody make any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

David

Presumably you have referenced the com object...

Can you not just debug it, catch the exception and see what it is?

Downloading multiple files using html

Hi,

I've been browsing for about a couple of hours now and can't find exactly what I'm looking for so I thought I might as well ask.

I'm looking to find a way to download multiple files using html, specifically a way (script) that when a user checks multiples files and hits a download button, the files will be copied to their hard drive. (Best example of this is streamload's download manager)

The thing is, it's to be run off a cd, so I can't use php, or something similar that requires access to the internet. Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Using JavaScript, you could dynamically write multiple IFRAMES to your HTML page and set the SRC attribute to the files that you want to download. Then, if they don't get opened by some wacky plugin, the browser will prompt the user to download them.
