Microsoft Excel C API and Visual Studio -


i trying figure out best solution rather complicated problem. need able publish data database webpage dashboard. not allowed query database directly except through program called xtraction. however, xtraction has ability export queried data ms excel.

i wondering can tell me whether c api excel allow me grab data in excel , use excel's native charting functionality produce rich charts need post on webpage. right now, way know explore getting ms visual studio 2010 , don't want put out money if it's not going able me.

any advice appreciated.

regards.

the c api allow write udfs. purposes- charting etc - need use automation.

before go overboard , buy vs 2010, there few options can explore - 1. vs 2010 express - free edition. code using c++/com or c#/excel interop. 2. use excel vba - it's built excel itself. press alt-f11. open vba development environment. can go creating vba add-in (.xlam) , write vba code there creates graphs.

however create graphs, exporting them file system easy as

activechart.export filename:=<file name>, filtername:="gif"

note: above vba code.

edit: if decide go excel vba route - should consider looking @ macro recorder. generates code actions perform on ui - fantastic productivity boost , gets initial code , running in no time.
