I always stick with PHP for web apps, but I am in a similar situation, I have to write a script that generates statistics and item reports from a database... The client wanted them in Excel format... I could have done CSV, but for the sake of aesthetics, I decided to go with a native Excel export... The best way of doing it is writing it in Perl with the SpreadSheet::WriteExcel module.
Take a look at it... I was quite impressed. -----Original Message----- From: Kunal Jhunjhunwala [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, November 19, 2001 5:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] exporting hey guys.. does anyone have any ideas on how to export information from a mysql database to microsoft word, excel, access, note pad or any other such application?
