I am new to Flex. I need to read a excel file from the client side and show it to data grid.
I tried searching but could not find something relevant.
Please give some pointers, if somebody has done something on this.
Thanks in advance.

as3xls is the only project I'm aware of for accessing Excel Data in a Flex App.

I have a huge dataset value in JRDatasource object and am not able to export it to Excel as it will give me memory out of space error. So am planning to split the JRDatasource object and export the data part by part. Any idea or suggestion on how to implement this? Or any other way suggested also fine for me. Thanks in advance.
I dont know much about JRDataSource, but I'll offer another solution.
Take a look at Apache POI library which enables you to create excel files on-the-fly.
So you can read from the data source element by element and persist them on a excel file.
i want to read the .ofx and .qif files using asp.net.
Can any one please help me in this.
Thank you
http://qif.codeplex.com/ contains an open-source API for reading QIF files from .NET.
There are several others if you search for QIF or OFX on CodePlex.
OFX is XML with a quirky header. Examples and specs can be found at http://www.ofx.net.
If you are looking for a program (and not code) then try iCreateOFX Basic.
It reads QIF, OFX and CSV files into a grid.
Is there a way to export a flex graph to excel? Thank you in advance!
While I've never tried doing this myself, it looks like some other folks have solutions for exporting to Excel.

The following might help if you are using a Flex app served from a Web app with a Java backend.
Flex includes some nifty out-of-the-box functionality for capturing images. If it suits your requirements to simply take a snapshot of the graph and slap it into an Excel document, it should be possible.
Here's an example for grabbing a snapshot. The bytes could conceivably be streamed back to the Web app. Then you could reconvert the bytes into an image object and use POI to add the image to Excel.
Another option might be to take the same underlying dataset used for rendering the chart in Flex and just build the chart in Excel. That assumes that the chart does not need to have the same look and feel as the corresponding Flex version, though. I've never used it, but the jXLS tool looks like it might provide Excel chart-building capabilities.
About 3 years ago, I was looking for a way to allow a web app user to download table results to an Excel file. I knew that I didn't want to put Office on the web server and that I probably wanted to create the XLS file in XML format. The question was: what was the best way?
Now I am writing my resume and I am trying to recap the things that I did and I am concerned that I didn't take the best approach and I am wondering if somebody can tell me whether my suspicions are true.
Basically, I saved an Excel file as XML and then looked at the contents of the saved file and reverse engineered what I thought was a pretty cool SDK to create an Excel file in XML format. It was fairly robust with options , nice object model, etc.
But did such a library already exist? One that I could have used? I want to know if I will need to defend this "accomplishment"
Also, could anyone recommend me a good place where I can see actual resumes of people with .NET / SQL Server or general developer skills?
You can try SmartXLS (for Java or .Net), it supports most features of Excel (cell formatting, Charts, formulas, pivot tables etc), and can read/write both the Excel97-2003 xls format and the Excel2007 openxml format.
These people wrote a perfectly good one that you probably couldn't implement yourself for as cheaply.
I am trying to use flexigrid(jquery) to display my data.. I have downloaded some examples but somehow i have not been able to figured out "How to bind the data to flexigrid" which i am fetching using ajax, and which currently is in array.. Basically i dont know how tryconvert my data in Json object.. Or is their any other way(I dont want to use php file to return my data).. and also please refer some useful links which i can follow to learn flexigrid in detail right from basics.. Most of the sites which i refered dont go in much details about flexigrid... I know, this 1 is very stupid, but I cant help as I have just beginned using flexigrid...
I think this explains everything pretty well. Flexgrid asp.net mvc
