I have included an office spreadsheet component in a page
located at www.realtydataonline.com/mcalculator. The
spreadsheet component is not displayed at runtime on the
web server. The spreadsheet component is displayed and
works when run in the Personal Web Server. Version is
FP2000. Host says all necessary plugins and extensions
installed. Help.
 
The spreadsheet component is not part of the FrontPage Server Extensions and
doesn't have anything to do with your host. The spreadsheet is part of the
Office Web Components and htus, only available for users who have Office
installed on their system. The spreadsheet itself resides on the client
computer. It could be that your security settings in IE are preventing
ActiveX controls from running. I'll see if I can find anything else
regarding this and post it here. Also, I checked the URL but received a 404
not found, is this the correct url for the spreadhseet? It may be that your
best bet is to use a JavaScript form calculator since the spreadsheet
control will require everyone who views the page to have an Office 2000 or
better licensed product (Excel). If this is a mortgage caluclator, you can
find lots of free scripts for this at javascript.internet.com and
www.dynamicdrive.com
