Data From MySQL Into CSV For Excel?
I've a survey form that I need to get data from and put into a mySQL
database.
Easy, can do it eyes closed.

But, then I need to be able to take that same information and convert
it (either directly or pulling it back out from the database) into a
CSV (or any file for that matter) that can be easily imported, added
into an existing Excel database.

I've no idea how to do that. (I can query the database, that I can do,
and create recordsets, AND create text files, but I've never created a
CSV file before.)

Is there a source, a good Web site for example, that explains that
kind of process pretty well?

Exporting Data From Mysql Using Php In Excel Form..?
I have a table in mysql wich contain a sim_number field which is 19 digit unsigned number. i have designed a script using php headear command for exporting data as excel. It is working but with the follwoing problem.
Since sim_number is 19 digit number when it get exported as .xls file. now when that .xls file is opened, excel automatically detect this sim_number as number and , since excel can store only 15 digit in number format it converts its last 4 digits to zeros.

Is there any way to get this sim_number exported as text so that excel store complete 19 digit number in text format. I cannot attach some charctor to this sim_number because of restricion on file format.

Show Data From Excel File
My clients want to upload some excel file and want to view data in their site from those excel files. They may update the excel files regularly and the content of the dynamic page should be changed according to the excel files.

Is there any way to connect excel files using php? I'm planning to store the data of excel files into mysql database when they upload the files from browser's interface.

Data Download From PHP/MSSQL To Excel
I have a webpage that displays data from a SQL database in table
format. I found information on how to create a way to allow a user to
download this information to Excel using 'Header()' in the PHP code.

Header("Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
Header("Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="filename.xls"");

I setup a link on the display page that sends the variables needed for
the SQL query to a different PHP page and the link is targeted to a
bogus target window (target="excel") so that it doesn't change my
current display. This is meant for people who find the proper display
they want and then want to save it but also want to continue display
other data in the current window.

If the user clicks the link it then opens a browser window and prompts
the user with the typical IE download prompts, which is fine. But if
the user chooses to 'Save' the file to his/her pc and then goes
through the steps to save it, the browser window that was opened
doesn't automatically close. If the user chooses to open the .xls or
chooses to cancel the download, then the browser window closes just
fine.

How To Format Data In A File Which Will Be Open In Excel?
I am trying to generate a file with php from a database extract that i would like to be open in excel.

What i need is to format the content of the file in CSV i guess. The 'fgetcsv()' can do the job by formating the content of an existing file.

Is there an other option than to create a file with my database content, save it on the server and open/format it with 'fgetcsv()'?

Dumping Data To Excel Via Https And Ie6 Broken
I thought I would contribute a solution for once.

We have a standard SUSE LAMP (Linux Apache Mysql PHP) server running
some custom apps, of which one component is dumping reports out to
excel. We are running this with https and all was good for a few
months. IE6 and Firefox worked fine. One day around the end of July
2005, IE6 stops doing the excel part.. Excel errors out with a "Could
not open 'https://blah.com?report.php'" . Firefox continues to work
fine. It turns out something has changed in an IE update from
Microsoft that breaks the old method we employed to launch excel and
feed it the data stream. This php code below contains the new headers
which now make this work for us again. Firefox continues to work
flawlessly with the new headers also!

<?
header("Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=report.xls");
header('Cache-Control: private, must-revalidate');
header('Pragma: private'); // allow private caching
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
session_cache_limiter("private, must-revalidate"); // allow private
?>

BTW, we are using PHP 4.x and apache 1.3.x

Passing Form Data To An Email Address/Excel Sheet On A Local Computer
I am right now learning PHP & want to know if there is a way to send
web form data to an Excel sheet located on a network. My windows xp PC
doesnot have a copy of Excel. Also i am not connected to the internet,
its a local computer.

What i am trying to do is to make a PHP script which will send a simple
form data to an excel sheet (or create a new Excel sheet) on another PC
on a network.

Since i am not connected to the internet, i will not be able to send an
email (anyway, sendmail is not available on Windows OS), nor do i have
any server on windows.

Is it possible to send form data to Excel sheet on local computer? Even
my PC is a local PC. Some one was saying its possible thru Windows
Scheduler.

From MySQL To Excel (through PHP)
it's possible to manage an exixtent excel file with PHP? :
i already have an excel file formatted in many fileds,

Excel To MySQL
I currentley use Navicat for most of my Excel to MySQL conversions. But I would like to get this web based.

Ideally the user would submit a standard .xls via a form upload.

Now here is the complex part. The file has 6 spreadsheets in it. Each spreadsheet has different columns and some of those columns need to go into different tables. So it's NOT just xls to one mysql table. It's actuallt one xls file with numerous spreadsheets going into different MySQL tables based on the column names.

Excel > XML > MySQL
I am wondering if there is a way I can use an upload form to upload an Excel XML export or just an .xls file to a MySQL database. I am also wondering if there is a tutorial out there that can help. So far I have only been able to find sites that offer tools to do it, but I want to use an upload form instead.

Excel File Imported Into MySQL
I have a Excel sheet, you can save this sheet as a wide range of extensions, the main one being .xls, but you can also do .txt tab delimited , html, .cvs, etc.... I'm very new to PHP and SQL.

Each Column is labeled say - Model - Manufacturer - Name - Item # - Serial # etc... with each row under it displaying the info for that item.

Is there any way I can take that excel sheet and import it into the MySQL database or PHP?? I'm very new, so a very detailed explanation would be of GREAT assistance. Thank you allot in advanced, this will save me 3 hours of work for something that might be done in 10 minutes.

Comparing Form Data To Mysql Data
Im interested in building a script that would take form data, a variable like an address, and compare it with a known address in a mysql table (called addresses), then if there is a match log the address information in a separate table called (addresslog), and return the visitor to a certain page. If there is no match between the address entered in the form and known addresses then the information is still logged into the addresslog database but the visitor will be sent to a different page.

I'm still new to this, and am working through the logic and the syntax, but I believe I'm close. It's still not working, I have all of the proper tables, maybe I'm way off with the coding so I thought I would seek out some expert advice. Here's the entire script with as much explanation as I could give. PHP Code:

Get Mysql Data

Data And Mysql
I want column XY be unique so:

 xy | gg | zz | ee
 12 | df | df | fd
 13 | df | df | fd

I want to enter more data but it might enter 12 | df | df | fd again so i would get an error. How would i prevent that without having to loop threw the whole database checking for that entry?

Getting Data With MYSQL
IM interested in knowing of any better ways of retreiving data from mysql and if my current way is safe as i request it over all my scripts.

print("$information[0]");

Getting Data From Mysql To Put Into Form
i am trying to set up a page that will allow the user to select a name from a list. The details of this name(ie, last name,address, job etc) are then taken from a database and put into a form. If any changes are needed the user makes them then presses a submit to update the database.

I can get the information out of the database and into the form fields but i have one small problem...

In the address field i can only get the first part of the address...
ie

if the address is 123 Sample Street

only 123 gets put into the form field.

How do i get the rest of the address to appear?

i am sure it is quite simple but cant quite put my finger on the answer!

my code is:

Address: <input type="Text" name="address" value =<?php echo $myrow["address"] ?>><br>

where $myrow is the array holding the results from my database query.

Any help would be appreciated!

Mysql Data Doubled
I'm facing a problem with mysql and don't know what is the problem as I still learn php/mysql. I use a simple script to upload some images and a file. Everything runs very well untill I choose a name for a file that is allready in the database, the new data just overwrite the old one which gives me allmost two identical results in the db, allmost because only the path to the uploaded images are changed, the comments, name, creation data stay different.

Php, MySQL, And Binary Data
I'm trying to upload binary data and store it in mySQL as a mediumblob. Since there's always the possibility of quotes (along with any other character) within the binary stream, I assume I need to do something along the lines of AddSlashes to ensure that the sql request won't fail. The trouble is I'm finding that StripSlashes is blowing away the string when I retrieve it. I've tried rolling my own encoding, but ereg_replace("'", "'", $string) is truncating my data, apparantly at the first null character it hits.

So: what's a solution for safely getting binary data into mysql via php?

Load Data Into MySQL
I have a table in which its primary key is auto-incremented. Yet, when
I try to load data using load data infile, this column will not
auto-increment. I am leaving that column blank in my file to be
uploaded, yet it fills this value in with a zero for all records.

Should I be using a php script to load this file? Why isnt this
updating correctly?

How To Get The Data From MySQL Into A PHP Template
I am creating a template page that will have the same subsections on each page. Each subsection is supposed to get information from a MySQL database. The subsections are: Location, Host, Cost, Travel, Age Restrictions, Work Project, Ministry Description. The variables are $locationID (primary key),$location, $host, $cost, $travel, $agerestrictions, $project, $ministry.

Now. My question is so simple. How do I get information from the database to the template based on the link (location) that the user chooses. I'm sure an "mysql_connect();" is involved, but I'm not sure how to pass the selection to the database and get the information back that I need to plug into the template.

Pull Data Out Off Mysql
I am making a database using mysql where i have 2 tables, one for car manufacturers and one for car models.I've already done that. I have made a php page where i have 2 drop down menus.

The first menu shows car makers(manufacturers) and the 2nd nothing. Now when a user opens the 1st menu and selects a maker , the 2nd automatically fills up with models from that car maker only and it gets its information from the database.That is every time i decide to add a new model to my database the 2nd menu (if selected) must go and search the database for all the models for that maker and show them.
