Export Gridview to excel

[johnlim20088]

Hi,

Hi, currently I have a code below on my Listcontact.asp x file to export my gridview data to excel:-

It is work success, and export the 'Contacts.xls' to my folder.

But have following problem->
1) when i open with wordpad, it show html tag with the value.
2) when i open with excel, it look ok, BUT i don't want the colour and button to be export.

CAN i format it as normal line by line record?

private void PrepareGridView ForExport(Contr ol gv)
{
LinkButton lb = new LinkButton();
Literal l = new Literal();

string name = String.Empty;

for (int i = 0; i < gv.Controls.Cou nt; i++)
{

if (gv.Controls[i].GetType() == typeof(LinkButt on))
{

l.Text = (gv.Controls[i] as LinkButton).Tex t;

gv.Controls.Rem ove(gv.Controls[i]);

gv.Controls.Add At(i, l);

}

else if (gv.Controls[i].GetType() == typeof(DropDown List))
{

l.Text = (gv.Controls[i] as DropDownList).S electedItem.Tex t;

gv.Controls.Rem ove(gv.Controls[i]);

gv.Controls.Add At(i, l);

}

else if (gv.Controls[i].GetType() == typeof(Button))
{

//l.Text = (gv.Controls[i] as CheckBox).Check ed ? "True" : "False";

gv.Controls.Rem ove(gv.Controls[i]);

//gv.Controls.Add At(i, l);

}

if (gv.Controls[i].HasControls())
{
PrepareGridView ForExport(gv.Co ntrols[i]);
}


}
}

Response.ClearC ontent();
Response.AddHea der("content-disposition", attachment);
Response.Conten tType = "applicatio n/Excel";
