Loading to Excel Services

Hello

I have a question about loading to Excel Services.

Is there any way that I can load data from a Project Portfolio Server 2007 or Project Server 2007 to an Excel Service and display that data in SharePoint Server 2007?

Thanks and best regards,

Mystique

Not out of the box, though if Project Server provides an SDK where you can programmatically query for data, you could write a UDF to get the data through the SDK, and return it to the workbook loaded in Excel Services.

I don't know much about Project Server, but you can check out this post on how to use the SharePoint SDK to get SharePoint List data into the workbook on Excel Services, and you could do the same with the Project SDK assuming there is one: http://blogs.msdn.com/luisbeonservices/archive/2006/09/28/consuming-sharepoint-lists-in-excel-services.aspx

And can't you use the BDC to load the data from Project Server?

Possibly, I'm not sure, you might have to ask around on a BDC forum (I'm not much of a BDC expert).

If that's the case than you could use a UDF to get the BDC data into Excel Services and indirectly getting your Project Server data.
