Marcelo Agostinho Problems converting VIsualForce Page to Excel
Hello!
Well, i tried some examples of how to convert VF to Excel, and i did it with sucess.
But now when i convert my own VF Page to Excel, apparently it works fine, but when i try to open, the excel give the following message
"Cant read the file",
Here is the code...
<apex:page controller="CarteiraCliente" sidebar="false" contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel">
<apex:pageBlock>
<apex:form>
<apex:commandButton value="Carrega Tabela" action="{!teste}"/>
</apex:form>
</apex:pageBlock>
<apex:pageBlock title="Carteira de Cliente">
<apex:pageBlockTable value="{!valoresClienteMes}" var="cliente" title="Carteira de Cliente">
<apex:column id="nomeCliente" value="{!cliente.nomeCliente}"/>
<apex:column id="valorTreze" value="{!cliente.valorTreze}"/>
</apex:pageBlockTable>
</apex:pageBlock>
</apex:page>
Tks!!!
What happens if you take out the form? Perhaps there's elements to that that aren't supported when converting to an Excel file?
Andrew, how are you doing?
Well, i tried to get out the form, and when i save the page, i get an excel file and when i try to open it, i got the same message.
Tks
Hmm, I'm not sure. If you remove the content type header (i.e. display as a visualforce page) are there any characters ther that may cause problems for Excel?
Can you create the example here and open with Excel: http://blog.sforce.com/sforce/2008/12/visualforce-to-excel.html
I'd try with those two things to start, and work backwords - simplify your page, and add stuff back in until you find the part that's causing the break.
Andrew this is the exact link that i used to do the example.
Well tks for the hint! I ll do it, be back soon with the answer! I Hope.
Andrew, it is my fault, the problem is the commandButton, i removed it and it worked...
Now i have another, question,
This button will call a method who ill populate the table...
How can i convert to XLS only an block of code?
