Step 5: Run PHP code that exports data to XLS file
Execute the following PHP code that exports data to XLS file.
<?php/*============================================================

| This tutorial shows how to export data to XLS file that has
| multiple sheets in PHP. The first sheet is filled with data.
* ==========================================================*/include("DataType.inc");
header("Content-Type: text/html");
echo"Tutorial 28<br>";
echo"----------<br>";
// Create an instance of the class that exports Excel files
$workbook = new COM("EasyXLS.ExcelDocument");
// Create two sheets
$workbook->easy_addWorksheet_2("First tab");
$workbook->easy_addWorksheet_2("Second tab");
// Get the table of data for the first worksheet
$xlsFirstTable = $workbook->easy_getSheetAt(0)->easy_getExcelTable();
// Add data in cells for report headerfor ($column=0; $column<5; $column++)
{
$xlsFirstTable->easy_getCell(0,$column)->setValue("Column " . ($column + 1));
$xlsFirstTable->easy_getCell(0,$column)->setDataType($DATATYPE_STRING);
}
$xlsFirstTable->easy_getRowAt(0)->setHeight(30);
// Add data in cells for report valuesfor ($row=0; $row<100; $row++)
{
for ($column=0; $column<5; $column++)
{
$xlsFirstTable->easy_getCell($row+1,$column)->setValue("Data ".($row + 1).", ".($column + 1));
$xlsFirstTable->easy_getCell($row+1,$column)->setDataType($DATATYPE_STRING);
}
}
// Set column widths
$xlsFirstTable->setColumnWidth_2(0, 70);
$xlsFirstTable->setColumnWidth_2(1, 100);
$xlsFirstTable->setColumnWidth_2(2, 70);
$xlsFirstTable->setColumnWidth_2(3, 100);
$xlsFirstTable->setColumnWidth_2(4, 70);
// Export the XLS fileecho"Writing file: C:\Samples\Tutorial28 - export XLS file.xls<br>";
$workbook->easy_WriteXLSFile("C:\Samples\Tutorial28 - export XLS file.xls");
// Confirm export of Excel fileif ($workbook->easy_getError() == "")
echo"File successfully created.";
elseecho"Error encountered: " . $workbook->easy_getError();
// Dispose memory
$workbook->Dispose();
$workbook = null;
?>
Overloaded methods For methods with same name but different parameters, only the first method overload retains the original name. Subsequent overloads are uniquely renamed by appending to the method name '_2', '_3', etc (method, method_2, method_3), an integer that corresponds to the order of declaration that can be found in EasyXLS.h, a file that comes with EasyXLS installation.
