As some of you may be aware, I have been making an add-in to produce html output of selected data in Excel. The output is fairly consistent with that produced by Excel Jeanie as can be seen here:

http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/showpos...&postcount=241

the differences being:

1. the interface is a whole lot simpler
2. you can choose if you want to output all the formulas in selection or only some of them
3. the ouput colour-codes nesting levels in the formulas
4. it only does formulas and data (it doesn't report conditional formatting or data validation applied)
5. it comes as an .xla file rather than an .exe (so doesn't require Admin rights to install!)
6. the code is visible for anyone that wants to laugh (or cry) at it


The generated html should also be considerably simpler as much of the formatting and style elements are now held in a css file applied to the whole Board (Suat Ozgur has created a css class which I link to in the generated html).

It has been tested by me and Jon von der Heyden and feedback from Suat incorporated. What I need now is for some others to test and come back with any comments.

If you would like to see the file and perhaps test it, please Private Message me with your email address and I'll send you the .xla file and a .doc file with guidance notes:

The .xla file is approx 100Kb in size, so it isn't very big. It will work in all versions of Excel since xl2000, although I will be developing a specific xl2007 ribbon interface next.

Thanks!

Guys

There is a problem with User Defined Selection if you only select a single cell and there are more formula cells in the originally selected area being output: Excel will output not just the single cell but all formula cells. I have the correction for this but haven't rolled it out yet.

Hi Sandeep

That could well be because Ascii 23 and 6 are non-printing characters and have no defined appearance (as far as I am aware).

Oh all right.

I understand when you say they have no defined appearance. ASCII 23 showed as a T turned to its side while 6 showed as a hyphen on my office computer while they show up as small squares on my home computer.

Hi Richard

Thanks for sending copy through and the work you have put into this code.

I have copied resulting html code into browser and everything is displaying correctly.

When I copy into the forum, the borders around my cell selections only show for the right and bottom. There must be something in the css of the site causing the left and top border to disappear.

Could this please be looked at.

Cheers, InaCell.
