I _hate_ having to cut paste data from a web browser to excel - in fact one
of our customers attempted to convince us that this is a viable way of
receiving orders.  It is quite simple to send (using asp) a page to excel
assuming the client has both Excel and IE.

Insert response.ContentType="application/vnd.ms-excel"  into the
top of the
asp then just write a table.  The table can use excel formula if required.

e.g.


<%@ LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" %>

<% response.ContentType="application/vnd.ms-excel"  %>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Fruit</td>
<td>Quantity</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Apples</td>
<td>6</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Pears</td>
<td>3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Oranges</td>
<td>20</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Total</td>
<td>=sum(b2:b4)</td>
</tr>
</table>
