if there were a an Excel spreadsheet on and INTRAnet network page, How would a guy go about reading a certain cell in that spreadsheet for a specfic numerical value? Is there a specific family of language that deals with this type of issue?
what i want to do is have a webpage (on an INTRAnet-Network) that looks at an Excel spreadsheet (on the Network) and then displays a graphic if the value meets certain criteria. (?) Lets say I have a spreadsheet that has 10 cells, and I want a webpage that looks at the value in one of those cells and says 'if the value = 9, then display a picture of a 'face' or basicly a graphic image and if it does not equal 9, then display an image of a say 'chair'.
And I want another part of the webpage to do the same thing with another cell value and says 'if that cell value = 2, then display a different image graphic of a 'tree' and so on until all cell values display according to a condition, on some area on a web page.
(i hope i asked this in the correct manner to explain properly what i want to do, i bet all the SHARP MINDS in this forum know what i mean ! :hellother
