I was asked to produce an Excel file of a specific format, using text as input. User will input text into a TextBox in asp.net, which I will parse/process and export to Excel.

Since the Excel file format is specified, I am thinking of using Reporting Services 2005 and vb.net. I am open to any other suggestion though, provided that vb.net will be used.

Thanks in advance :)

  • I thought of converting the text to xml (file or text) and then pass it dynamically as Datasource to the report. And this is where I can't find a solution Commented Sep 5, 2013 at 9:53
