Does anyone know a good way to do this? I have an XLS file that I would like to display for my members but I don't want them to view just the spreadsheet. Ideally it would display the header, navbar, and then the spreadsheet. Sort of like frames but without all the negatives associated with frames!

Any ideas please let me know.

Thanks!

Tables won't make a 'spreadsheet' per say, but it will give a spreadsheet like appearance and feel, I guess... and it's just simple HTML..

To learn more about HTML tables, look here...

Thanks, but tables won't work as the .xls file is dynamic and stored on a remote server.

OH, I see what you are saying... Yah, I couldn't tell ya to be honest, sorry...

If your using a windows server, you could use .net to query the xls file if I understand correctly and maybe parse the results as an xml or rss feed or something nifty like that....

Can the file be saved as text or xml? That might give you more options?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
