That depends - you can write a file, which Excel can read, and add a
link to that. AFAIK only ASP has an option to open a file in Excel.
Correct me if I am wrong.
Af for exporting there are a few tricks:
$ff3=fopen($targetdir."\\some_file.xls", "w");
fwrite($ff3, "<html><table border=1>\r\n");
fwrite($ff3, "<tr><td><b>Item:</b></td> <td><b>Used
in:</b></td> <tr>\r\n");
fwrite($ff3, "<tr><td>sugar</td><td>coffee</td></tr>");
For tricks with numbers, try:
<STYLE TYPE="text/css"><!--
.number2dec {mso-number-format: Fixed;}
--></STYLE>
and use it like
<td class=""number2dec"">" . $price ."</td><td class=""number2dec"">
=d" . $y1 . "*e" . $y2 ."</td>"
This will add the first as a number, and the seconds as a fomula.
Try play around with this.
