Use BiffWriter, I don't know where it lives, you must find it yourself.

Okay here is what I want to do. Select the field of a database that I want. Hit submit. Execute a query of a database based on the said form. Gather all the data and rows and plug them into an excel generated file. Display a dialogue box asking the user the save the file. The saved file being an excel file with data generated from a database. Make sense? Would the header calls be something like this? header("Content-type: application/xls"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=downloaded.xls"); Now if that is cool, how would I get the data into the downloaded.xls file to have this work? Thanks Phillip
