Problem: I have a user who would like to generate an HTML page directly

  • 0

Problem:

I have a user who would like to generate an HTML page directly from Excel (without doing file-save as) but instead click a button and have the current worksheet (or a modified variant thereof) contents just ‘pop-up’ inside a script-generated HTML page. The rationale is that the Excel content could be used to navigate to different web pages automatically, based on the values entered in the cells by the user.

Question:

1) Has anyone done this kind of thing using Excel, and are there any security implications, above and beyond just the ordinary considerations that go with having macros enabled in Excel.

2) Has anyone done this using an alternate methodology?

    Why not write a VBA macro that does the “Save As” operation to save the file in HTML format?

    You don’t even have to record the macro, you could probably record it using the macro recorder.

    1. Start macro recorder
    2. Save As – HTML format
    3. Stop macro recorder
    4. Assign macro to a button
