    Default Product Upload/Download question

    Wanted to know if I manually add a product into our storefront, is it possible to download that file into an excel or xml file to have as a backup?

    What I am asking is can you build the file in Asp then download it as an excel or an xml.

    Thanks for any feedback.

    You can export some product information through the Products->Export Product Pricing to Excel/XML option in the admin site, but that does not export ALL product details.

    If you're wanting a backup, you should really have your host backup the database frequently (if they're not already), so you can have it restored if need be.

    Using the GemBox components included, you can create excel worksheets and populate them with information and then save them to file, if that is really what you are looking for.

    You can find online help about the objects available for use here

    You can also fill a DataSet with Product table information and export it to XML.

    It really depends on what you are looking to achieve.
