How To View/review Excel File In Browser

Oct 20, 2010

I can place an Excel file in the root directory, use Browse and view an xlsx, xlsm or any other Excel file and it (sometimes) pops up in a browser window with no option to save or do anything other than view the Excel document (you can type in the cells and it gives you the option to save if there are any changes). I'm trying to find out how to do that exact thing client-side.

We have a server that allows a client to upload an Excel file and we want them to be able to review it only. If there is a way to bypass the Open message box that pops, that would be ideal, but just getting it to display in a separate, small browser window would be just what the doctor ordered. The Excel files are varied so the content is always different and not necessarily formatted the same. That removes the ability to go with named ranges and definitions.

Currently with the code we have, users can press a view button to review the file they uploaded for errors but it opens up the full version of Excel and then throws errors because it tries to force a save to a temp file. Not exactly ideal and very confusing to the user. I don't habve the exact code available to me at the moment, but I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction.

C# - How To Cause A Browser To Open A Tab Delimited Txt File In Excel

Mar 18, 2011

We have a tab delimited file that we are making available for download. The file extension is txt, but the users want it to open automatically in Excel. The previous developer had used the following code:

[code]....

The ContentType is being set to Excel, but that doesn't seem to have any effect. I am guessing the txt file extension is causing it to be picked up by notepad or the like instead. I have tried just renaming it to a xls extension, which works but Excel complains that I am trying to trick it or it might be a corrupted file.

C# - Remove Password From Excel File -- Without Having To Install Excel On Servers?

Jan 12, 2010

I need to remove the password protection from an uploaded excel file. I have been doing this directly with the Excel assemblies (ASP.NET/C#) and then I tried with the ooxmlcrypto, both worked, but the problem is that I can not deploy either of those solution because of the dependencies.

I mean, my sysadmin does not want us installing Excel on the server and, as I have been searching for some alternatives, I can not find one.

My question is: is there a way to put the necessary dlls in the server without installing Excel or the Office suite?

I found this: Office 2007 Primary Interop Assemblies redistributable package but still, it requires a Microsoft Office Product.

Review Of A Locked Part Of An Function In C#

Mar 15, 2010

Is this piece of code where I lock a part of the function correct? Or can it have use drawbacks when multiple sessions ask concurrently for the same Exam? Purpose is that client that first asks for the Exam will assemble it, all next clients will get the cached version.

public Exam GetExamByExamDto(ExamDTO examDto, int languageId)
{
Log.Warn("GetExamByExamDto");
lock (LockString)
{
if (!ContainsExam(examDto.id, languageId))
{
Log.Warn("Assembling ExamDto");
var examAssembler = new ExamAssembler();
var exam = examAssembler.createExam(examDto);
if (AddToCache(exam))
{
_examDictionary.Add(examDto.id + "_" + languageId, exam);
}
Log.Warn("Returning non cached ExamDto");
return exam;
}
}
Log.Warn("Returning cached ExamDto");
return _examDictionary[examDto.id + "_" + languageId];
}

I have a feeling that this isn't the way to do it.

How To Get A Code Review Of Simple Gallery Method

Jun 29, 2010

I wanted to get a code review of my methods for creating a simple list/gallery display in ASP.NET. I am looking for specific ideas on how I might approach this same task differently. My goals are simplicity, rapid development, and ease-of-use.

The task: Create a simple image list view (gallery) for a folder in ASP.NET web forms.

How I Did It: I created the image controls on the fly and add them to a placeholder template. I added line breaks using literals controls too. Finally, I add a query string to the page for the "paging".

What other ways would one recommend to do this? I had considered to use a grid or listview. My goal was to do this really quickly.
