hi

follow the steps:

i executed your one of demo program.


aspose-cells-2.5.2-java\samples\webDemo\src\PivotTable

find the attached code file and generated xlsx file.

send this file as mail attachment.(without opening and save back to the disk).

it is working fine firefox.

when i open the file in internet explorer. the pivot table data is not displayed.

we found one thing.

after saving to the disk location open the excel file save back to the disk.

and send this file as attachment. in this case it works in internet explorer. and file size is also increased.

Thanks & Regards.

hi

the given method is works only for that example.

we are using lightcelldataprovider.

this is my another example.


import java.io.IOException;

import com.aspose.cells.*;
public class pivot {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
workbook.open(“c:\5315.xlsx”,FileFormatType.XLSX);
pivot p=new pivot();

p.CreateStaticReport(workbook);

//Saving the Excel file
workbook.save(“c:\mail.xlsx”,FileFormatType.XLSX);
}

private void CreateStaticReport(Workbook workbook)
{
Worksheets worksheets = workbook.getWorksheets();
Worksheet worksheet = worksheets.addSheet(“Pivot sheet”);

PivotTables pivotTables = worksheet.getPivotTables();

//Adding a PivotTable to the worksheet
int index = pivotTables.add("=Data!$A$1:Y$73",“A1”,“PivotTable1”);

//Accessing the instance of the newly added PivotTable
PivotTable pivotTable = pivotTables.get(index);

//Unshowing grand totals for rows.
pivotTable.setRowGrand(false);

//Draging the first field to the row area.
pivotTable.addFieldToArea(PivotFieldType.ROW,“Applicant Status”);

//Draging the second field to the column area.
pivotTable.addFieldToArea(PivotFieldType.PAGE,“Vacancy Name”);
pivotTable.addFieldToArea(PivotFieldType.PAGE,“Recruiter Full Name”);
pivotTable.addFieldToArea(PivotFieldType.PAGE,“Address City”);



//Draging the third field to the data area.
pivotTable.addFieldToArea(PivotFieldType.DATA,“Applicant Number”);

PivotFields pivotFields = pivotTable.getDataFields();
pivotFields.get(0).setFunction(ConsolidationFunction.COUNT);

pivotTable.setAutoFormatType(PivotTableAutoFormatType.REPORT1);

pivotTable.calculateData();


}

}

i execute this one and sent as mail attachment.

Hi,


Well, we could not find such kind of issue you mentioned. We have tested both on web page and via mail attachment. We have no good idea for your issue which seems strange to us. We think you should try to create such a file manually in MS Excel and see whether it can work fine for you when sending the file as mail attachment.

Thank you.
