[CLOSED] Upload csv or xls file and pass to procedure
I have been searching the forum and internet for a way to provide a better option for users who want to pass multiple values to a report using an HTML launch page (not in the MRE). What I would like to have is an option that the users could click a button and select a saved csv file or xls file from their desktop with a single column of values. The upload would grab all the values and pass them to the report that could use the values in a where statement. Has anyone done something like this or can anyone provide me with assistance?

I would suggest looking into an upload jsp, this can then place the file somewhere the fex can access it. (Assuming your web server is on the same box as the webfocus server.)
