Excel and the Internet

Hello to all!!! Is there a way for me to post a report on the web that will allow users to not only have access but to make changes as well?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Anthony

Hi Anthony,

you can certainly publish it on the web, just replace your normal hyperlink with the name of the xls file in your HTML coding

something like this :

(where the {} are actually <> )

{A HREF="yourpath/yourfile.xls"}your link description {/A}

users will be able to click on the link at have it open the Excel file and be able to change it as normal. Not sure about multi-users changing it, you may have to investigate the normal accessing of files, but there have been lots of posts here about that too

hope this helps
Chris
