[ic] Excel/PDF files on-the-fly

[Rene Hertell]

Hi,

Has anyone created an excel or PDF file that is always downloadable with the
source pulled out from the db in real-time? I tried to check the excel
export-function from the UI, but that contains too many steps (and I don't
want to write a file to the server when someone downloads these files).

What I would need is a result from a sql query that should be in Excel
format. A formatted version as a PDF-file would then be my next step after I
have solved the excel problem...

I'm able to create files that have text-content like vcards, csv-files etc,
but everything else is seems to be to complicated for the moment...

I would appreciate it very much if someone could give me some hints in how
to solve these two problems.


Regards, Rene
