I would like to use this code in an Excel template to insert the current date/time in the footer every time the template is called. Using the code as is above, it will always insert the last time the template itself was saved. Can I modify to have it insert the current date/time whenver it runs?

If the macro already ran as-is (before you modified it) there is a time stamp written into the center footer as text. You can just delete the text.

Or, if you changed the location of the time stamp by copying this line:

WS.PageSetup.CenterFooter = “Last modified on ” & TSS

…and changing it to this:

WS.PageSetup.LeftFooter = “Last modified on ” & TSS

You will just need to either remove or comment out (by adding a single-quote character to the beginning of the line) the code for the center footer.

Quick question – I pasted this code in my spreadsheet and it worked although when I modified it to have time stamp appear in left footer, the time stamp continued to appear in the center as well. How do I get rid of the center stamp?

One thought that comes to mind is to check if your application server is timing out the uploads. Most application servers (and web servers if you are using a combination) have a setting where the default request timeout can be ignored for URLs that are considered to be applications. You will want to make sure the request is allowed to take as long as necessary (within some practical limitation) in order to allow large uploads to complete. Your web server has a default request timeout so that clients on slow connections cannot overly consume server resources.

The only other thing I can think about is that you must be sure to include the stream flushing calls before finishing the upload (as the example shows). But you are probably doing this correctly if you are getting smaller uploads to work.

Best wishes!

Hi,

Thanks for the example. I have implemented and tried this in on of my applications. This is working fine for small file sizes less than 1 mb. If we try to upload a file of size 5mb or 10 mb Uploading is successful. But in the uploads folder if we try tom open the file, it is saying corrupted file. Could you please provide me some solution for this.

Thanks,

Lars, I finally had a chance to check out your JSP implementation of handling an upload from Plupload. Thanks for sharing this! I am sure many people will find your example useful.
