HI

I have an excel book with 3 work sheets the last sheet named as " Total " has the data which i want to put on an asp page.
There are around 250 to 300 rows and around 10 to 12 colums in that sheet.
That Total sheet contains data of all the clients. I want to display the data of one perticular client only. which will be in a row format and not in a tabular format with alternate colors for the row.
I would like to have a text box on top with a search button where in i can search a perticular record also or can scroll the asp page also.
I want this page to be on the server so that all my client machines can access the ASP page and get the required information.
There a new excel sheet on a daily bases i:e there are new records on daily bases and so the ASP page should have the news information on it .

This is my problem can u pls give me a sloution for the same.
with the code pls.

you said:

does this mean from excel you want one perticul client to display on asp page

or

on asp page you want to select a customer and ahow just that data

also do you want the precess to be a button in excel or do you want another process to do this parsing

hi

ya i want to get the data of a perticular client from excel and put it on the page.
and then on the page when i type something to search for that perticular client i should get the search result and only that perticular record should be displayed.

i want the button on the same page on top of all the records but the result should be displayed on another page and after clicking " BACK " on that page it should come to the original page.

what i was thinking is:-
To take the data from the excel sheet of a perticular client and display it on the page as well as store it into an array so that when i search for a perticular record i can get it easily from the array and i need not go to the excel sheet again to search a perticular record due to which i can reduce the load on the server by accessing the sheet again and again but if there is any more latest information added to the excel sheet then the page should have all the information or records on it

so can u pls help me.

i would read the excel data into a data base and the build an asp page to read from that database

do you have an iis server to show the asp pages?

are you a programmer
do you need help to do all of it or just snippets?

Hi
