EXCEL : .SLK file not showing data in table format
When I am exporting data from my application as HTML in Excel and saving in .SLK file ,It displays data in HTML tag format(which is not useful). I need data in table format. But when I change the fi...
The first screenshot clearly denotes a file which is in html format, NOT in SYLK format. How are you creating these files?
Is it possible to ever generate a .SLK file with tabular format? (when I exported the data in HTML format and saved the file with .SLK extension)
Answer for above question would help me.
- If you're exporting to html it makes no sense to use the SLK extension. In general a file extension is meant to indicate the type of file. Using an extension which is different than the actual file type is not good practise.
Only SYLK file types are supposed to have an SLK extension, html files should have either .htm or .html extensions.I agree with what you say but we were told by few people that earlier .SLK files were showing the data in tabular format. Was that ever a possible case? Is it an Yes or NO?
It's urgent, can you please help.
- I don't really know. It is possible I guess.
JKPieterse Thanks.
