My Internet Explorer cannot see Frontpage spreadsheet

J

John B.

I have a Frontpage spreadsheet on my web page
www.johnbrooksrealty.com/ Discount Commissions that I
cannot see on my "athome" browser (Internet Explorer
vesion 6.1).

I have the same browsers at work and see the spreadsheet
fine, so I figure the problem is with my "at home"
browser, any suggestions?

Thank you in advance

The codebase is point to a location on the machine that you created the page
on:

codebase="file:///F:/msowc.cab"

The server you are hosting this site on must have the Office Server
Extensions installed, which requires the server to Windows IIS.

Also, just so you know, if you are using Excel spreadsheet components they
will only work for users who have a licensed copy of Excel on their
computer. This is probably not actually a good idea to use since a lot of
users won't have it.

Hope this helps,

Mark, I noted your comment to John B of 28 January in which you said that if a user does not have a licenced copy of Excel, they would not be able to use an interactive spreadsheet on the web. The site I did for my friend has a loan calculator (prepared in Excel). Is there any other method of producing a calculator that does not involve Excel, ie something that anyone and everyone can use? I am not a techno and only dabble in FrontPage. I do have a good working knowledge of the other MS products. Thanks in advance.

You can use JavaScript, in the IE address bar type:
