The exporting bit came up on the roro list recently. See the last post in the thread. I’ve just been using csv format and fastercsv myself with some visual basic to help the end user. Often wondered about the xml format of excel as well…

Hi Karthik,

Can you guide me how to export data's to Excel sheet, which i am taking it from Webpage;

My code ..... .....code continues elements = get_text_fields(ie) elements.each{|e| p 'Name - ' + e.name p 'Value - ' + e.value .... ....code continues

after executing i am getting "Value", "Name"; Now i need to export to Excel, Name as Header and Value in each cells (rows and columns)
