I have some asp. pages that use a component based on Excel for creating some charts and reports. Recently, I moved to a new server and it does not have excel installed on it. Obviously, the component does not work
The question is:
Is there any library, component, viewer, runtime, ... whatever, that I can use in the server and make my componet work without having to install Excel, the whole program?
fisxcer, you would have to distribute Excel9.OLB and all the files that this file depends upon.
I do not know the files that it uses.
The OLB file is not to be distributed though... MS do not approve :(
but you should be able to make it work.
I would try using Wise (inst. scripting package I use) run the app and make wise detect what files are in use. then package and deploy it.
once again. This component is not supposed to be redistributed, but it should be possible :)
peet I suppose MS would have thought of that and kept some safegaurd.
Anyway, I supose there is something like Excel viewer available which can be distributed freely. You will have to serch on Microsoft's site .
