Now I use this to export the repeater (with several repeaters attached) to succeed:
protected void ExportToExcel(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Response.Clear();
Response.Buffer = true;
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=finance.xls");
Response.Charset = "";
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel";
System.IO.StringWriter stringWrite = new System.IO.StringWriter();
System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter htmlWrite = new HtmlTextWriter(stringWrite);
rptMinistry.RenderControl(htmlWrite);
Response.Write(stringWrite.ToString());
Response.End();
}
But that does not do what I want. Instead, it gives me the html in the excel file (although there is data) this is what I get (each row is a cell in the excel sheet):
<tr class="alt">
<td class='hidden'>LOR In Development</td>
<td>MOD</td>
<td>Air Force</td>
<td class="size1"></td>
<td>Hellfire (AGM-114) Follow On</td>
<td>10-Mar-08</td>
<td class="align_right ">$50,000,000.00</td>
<td class="align_right hidden">$0.00</td>
</tr>
<tr class="alt">
<td class='hidden'>LOR In Development</td>
<td>MOD</td>
<td>Air Force</td>
<td class="size1"></td>
<td>Precision Strike Mi-17 (block 20)</td>
<td>17-May-08</td>
<td class="align_right ">$20,100,000.00</td>
<td class="align_right hidden">$0.00</td>
</tr>
etc ... now the data is correct, but how can I get them to display correctly in the spreadsheet?
