Excel files and integrating them into my website.

Hi, I am a VBA programmer and an Excel advanced user. I prepared analysis and supporting excel files that I want to integrate into my website. However, I am not sure how to do this. I want to have the excel file show up without the EXCEL features so that the graphics and report shows up and can not be modified.

You do not have to show me step by step how to do this but can you tell me if this is possible?

:point_right: Try saving your Excel file as a Web Page.

If you choose "Save As" in Excel, you can pick from a number of output formats, and one of them is "Web Page". You can then choose between the whole document or single tab (I recommend "single tab").

The tabular section of the spreadsheet should then be converted into an HTML table, and any graphic components should get exported as images in a subfolder names similarly to the page (but with "_files" added to the end).

It should be reasonably straightforward to incorporate the HTML and/or images in your website from this point.

Awesome response, I will check that out.
