I am new to ASP.NET, but have been programming for about 14 years (C#
about 2 years). My manager asked me to develop a web application that would
allow employees to view a spreadsheet that is used to manage resources
(projects, employees, hours, dates, etc). The employee should only be able
to view data that pertains to them, and not be able to modify it (read only
view). My thought is to allow my manager to upload the spreadsheet to a
location in the virtual directory, programmatically parse through the
spreadsheet and filter out the data based on the windows authentication, and
then build a html table and display the data.
Is this the correct approach? Can the spreadsheet be located in a
completely different directory that is not in the virtual directory, but
located on a server somewhere. Could I access my manager's personal
directory using his windows logon information?
The other thought is just to develop a Windows form application, but
then it would require that everyone have .NET 2.0 installed and it was tough
enough getting MIS to install the 1.1 framework.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
