Hi All,
There is a active x control available to embed the excel spreadsheet as part of our Webfocus HTML form. It has the property of importing & exporting data from/to a specific excel.

I have created the csv file based on FOCUS hold file. That file is getting generated in the other folder which is under our application path. Now How do I know this URL for this csv file so that I can associate this CSV file to the excel. When ever user updates this excel, I want to update the same CSV. Is it possible? If so, please explain. It would be of great help.

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking...but, I think the answer is yes, with something called Visual Basic (within Excel it's called VBA).

Please explain what you are trying to do, precisely and clearly so I can help you with the appropriate code.

Thanks

I am able to get the data for the excel plug-in. I am able to get the data back from excel plug-in using object.CSVData method. When the same content is passed to fex programs to write to .txt file or .CSV file, it is getting passed as a single string & hence reading back as independant rows is becoming a problem.

Please help me on this.
