It does and it doesn’t. I’m using your sample code and here is what I’m doing:

I’ll change the select statement later but this is my sub


Private Sub CreateProductsList(ByVal excel As Excel)

excel.Open(“C:\datafeeds\pricewatch.xls”)

Me.dataTable1.Reset()
Me.oleDbSelectCommand1.CommandText = “SELECT DISTINCTROW Products.ProductName, " + _
" Categories.CategoryName, Products.QuantityPerUnit,Products.UnitsInStock " + _
" FROM Categories INNER Join Products ON Categories.CategoryID = Products.CategoryID” + _
" WHERE (((Products.Discontinued) = No)) Order by Products.ProductName"
Me.oleDbDataAdapter1.Fill(Me.dataTable1)

Dim sheet As Worksheet = excel.Worksheets(0)
sheet.Cells.ImportDataTable(Me.dataTable1, False, 0, 0)
sheet.Name = “Sheet 1”

While excel.Worksheets.Count > 1
excel.Worksheets.RemoveAt(excel.Worksheets.Count - 1)
End While

excel.Save(“datafeed.xls”, SaveType.OpenInBrowser, FileFormatType.Default, Me.Response)

End Sub

All I need for it to do is write that datafeed.xls file to c:\datafeeds\datafeed.xls (not the browser) and it has to be named Sheet 1. After that I should be good to go.

I’ve already purchased your product so I hope this works.

Thanks in advanced,

Hi Eric,

Please change last line of code to:

excel.Savec:\datafeeds\datafeed.xls, FileFormatType.Default)

But since our demo is a web application, please be sure it has the authority to write file to c:\datafeeds directory.

You can also download our winform demo at

Yes that worked. It’s strange but I did try that before and it threw an exception and I just couldn’t determine it.

Thanks again,

Eric
