connection to excel file using url

[cbrydon]

Hello,

I've noticed that at designer.stimulsoft.com (which uses 2019.2.3 ASP.NET, JS), a user can create a connection to an excel file by specifying a url to that excel file - something like the following...
http://someurl/Documents/PMD%20Due%20TPW.xls.

Can this type of connection be created in Stimulsoft 2018.1.8 ASP.NET, Flex (I'm not able to upgrade at the moment) with one of the available data connection types? Perhaps with an Ole DB Connection?
Its seems like the only way to use an OLE DB Connection is to specify a local drive letter and path (ie d:\documents\somefile.xls) and not using a url - at least I haven't found an example that uses an url.

Thanks,
Carl

Hello,

Unfortunately, for flex is not available Excel data source type. You can try to connect only via OleDb.

Thank you.
