Spreadsheet fields in text

A system architecture integrates spreadsheet functionality into text. The architecture allows insertion of discrete individual fields, referred to as “free floating fields”, inline with normal textual sentences. In an HTML document, for example, the free floating fields are elements constructed along with text elements and rendered together as an integrated document. Once rendered, the free floating fields present contents that resemble normal text consistent with the surrounding text. The free floating fields offer spreadsheet functionality, including the ability to handle complex formulas, reference values in a separate free floating field or table, and automatically recalculate the formulas when a source value changes. The values and formula results can also be formatted (e.g., numbers, date, times, currency, etc.), like a spreadsheet, while remaining part of the normal text of a document. Underlying the user interface, the architecture separates data handling functions from presentation functions. The architecture includes a user interface manager to manage how the free floating fields appear in a document (e.g., selection, cut, copy, paste, etc.) and to facilitate user entry of formulas and values into the fields. The architecture also has a spreadsheet functionality manager to manage the spreadsheet functions for the free floating fields, such as recalculation, formula handling, sorting, referencing, and the like.

Integrated method for creating a refreshable web query

The present invention allows a user to graphically create a refreshable Web Query by selecting tabular data displayed in a Web page. When the user invokes the refreshable Web Query command, an Internet browser module is launched within a Web Query dialog box open in the spreadsheet program. The user then graphically selects at least one instance of tabular data to import to the spreadsheet program. The invention also makes Web queries more accessible to a user and is embedded in a software utility, known as a Web query Smart Tag (WQST) utility. The WQST utility allows a user to create Web queries directly from an Internet browser module in one of several methods. The first method, known as a “Copy-Paste Web Query,” begins when a user pastes the tabular data into the spreadsheet program and determines whether the Web Query command should be present to the user. If the decision is made to present the Web Query command to the user, a Web Query option appears on a special drop-down menu. The second method is embedded in a module known as the “Export to Microsoft Excel” module, which allows a user to create a refreshable Web Query in the MICROSOFT EXCEL 2002 spreadsheet program directly from the MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER browser program. The last method is known as the “Edit with the Microsoft Excel” method, which allows a user to open the entire file or choose a portion of the file to import into the MICROSOFT EXCEL 2002 spreadsheet program as a refreshable Web Query.

Method, system, and computer-readable medium for determining whether to reproduce chart images calculated from a workbook

A method, system, and computer-readable medium are provided for determining whether to reproduce a chart image from the contents of a spreadsheet application workbook on a server. A calculation server calculates chart data for defining a chart image from workbook data retrieved from the spreadsheet application workbook, generates a representation of the chart data, and calculates an identifier for the representation of the chart data. A charting component receives the representation of the chart data and the identifier from the calculation server and compares the calculated identifier to a previously stored identifier on the server. If the calculated identifier is equal to the previously stored identifier, then the charting component retrieves a previously produced chart image from the representation of the chart data from the server. If the calculated identifier is not equal to the previously stored identifier, then the charting component produces a chart image from the representation of the chart data.
