ColdFusion Excel to HTML

[iq11]

Hello,

   We are using Oracle Database 12c and ColdFusion 2018 Enterprise edition,   The Excel to HTML file which is in ColdFusion is missing, Is there any way I can copy over so that the Excel file can get properly formatted and printed ?

Thanks

IQ

Hi, iq,

Just a reach, but CF ability to work with Excel and Word docs is, I believe, part of the POI that should have installed.  Check the installation logs for any errors during install.  POI may have been left out.

HTH,

Can you clarify for us how you have CF creating the Excel file, if indeed it is? You just said, "The Excel to HTML file which is in ColdFusion". You can be using any of a few ways:

• you may mean you are serving the file out of CF using cfcontent, pointing to a file found on the server.
• Or you may mean you are sending an html table, prefaced by a cfcontent and a mimetype, which causes the browser to open that in Excel.
• Or you could be using one of the CF tags for creating them (such as cfspreadsheet), like Wolfshad is referring to.
• and others

And when you say it's "missing", do you mean the page that should be serving it returns nothing? or what?

The more clarificaiton you can offer, the more likely we can help.
