RE: Excel and CF (using Excel to post data to server)

that's an excel web query. From Excel. Menu.Data.Get ExternalData.NewWebQuery Here's what I want to do. I have a web site (not mine) and I have 1200 individual items I want to post to a web database. This is normally done using a clumsy web form. But I want to create an excel spreadsheet

Re: Excel and CF (using Excel to post data to server)

Actually, you could build a VBA macro that utilizes WDDX. That way you could simply run the macro from a normal spreadsheet and have it post to a website (without having to build a "web" interface) Take a look at wddx.org's sdk. -- Billy Cravens [EMAIL PROTECTED] Eric Dawson wrote:

I got confused a little. What do I need wddx for? I don't have control over the other server, but I CAN post form values to update the web database. Sorry. don't get it. Eric From: Billy Cravens [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Excel
