Create a site usage Report In Excel

  Asked By: Hector Burns         Date: Nov 12, 2003      Category: Sharepoint      Views: 560
 

I am trying to create a site usage report as excel pivot table

Has anybody done this before.

If yes please share the process with me.

As far as my idea goes we have to decrypt the log files into a seperate file and load it into a database and connect an exccel pivot table to that data source.

I am having issues with decrypting the files.

this is interesting, if the STS or IIS logs are accessable via a XML Web Service then yes you shoudl be able to write some VBA code to manipulate them.. does anyone know the answer to that?

Configure IIS to log  via ODBC to a database  (standard feature). Then, access the
database via XML for SQL, which is supported in SQL Server 2000.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot - SQL Server Reporting Services is a nice add-on for
creating reports. It's freely downloadable from Microsoft:
