How easy is it to access the metadata from office files and PDF's? That is, Author, Title, Keywords, Comments etc...
I want to be able to scan a directory and provide links with descriptions (ie Comments field) for each file within. I can use automation to open and read the office files, but I imagine this would produce too big a load on the webserver. Is there a simple and slick way of doing this?
Are there any asp scripts that I can use to allow people to view my powerpoint, excel, and word files over the internet without having to download then? The must run from the server.
I'm receiving a resultset from a stored procedure & at other times a query from SQL Server.
I need to pull the metadata from the results that I receive. More specifically, I need to know if a field is a Float datatype. This will then determine how I display the results on the web, FormatCurrency().
I have a jog file upload routine & I'd like to also edit the meta data associated with the uploaded file. I'm not too interested in the exif metadata, but the simple file system metadata. Is there a way to do this with asp?
This is a feature that is really going on my nerves as I've been writing SOAP Web services using ASP and SOAP toolkit 3.0. My web services ASP scripts send XML data to the client application.
When I'm debugging under Visual Sudio, IIS prefixes *all* streams that go to the client with <!-- METADATA TYPE="ASP_DEBUG_INFO">. I'm using XMLHTTP in some cases to receive data. Neither XMLHTTP v3 nor v4 seem to accept this as valid XML. I must instantiate an XML document and load stripped data instead. So isn't there any way for IIS to stop sending this METADATA?
I am doing a flash map with different categories-shops, services etc.
I want when people click on shops to view all the shops icons(buttons) in the map. They have to be pulled from a database using ASP. How do you save and pull swf files in Access database?
I would like to restrict access to certain PDF files on my webserver. How can they be protected if they are in a "public" directory? For example, lets assume you have your html and asp pages for http://www.xyz.com saved on the server's hdd @ c:xyz.comhtdocs. If you place thefile.pdf in that directory, then all the "unauthorized" person would need to know is the pdf file url, i.e., http://www.xyz.com/thefile.pdf.
Assume I place the pdf file in the following directory on the server c:xyz.compdfs. Is there a way in ASP that I can allow certain visitors to view that file Remember, the asp file would be located on at c:xyz.comhtdocs.
I want to have a simple login system on a website, where there is a private area, where only registered users can enter. I can do this, using a session. My problem is that I want to each user to have access to some files.
So user1 can access file1.zip (imagine) and user2 can access file2a.zip and file2b.zip. Of course, if they don't login, they can't download the file. If I just place the files on the server, with the url any person can download it. Of course there must be a way to do this.
I have just uploaded the files to a where they will reside and am now getting the following error
Error Type: Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005) The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file ' syd9004papc$InetpubwwwrootGMS_Statsgms_st ats.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.
I have checked IIS on the server where this DB resides and have allowed as much rights as I can ... Has anyone seen this error before? I realise it must have something to do with security but I don't know if it's IIS or DB related?

I'm trying to use Activer Server Pages (ASP) to display a graph based on user's selection criteria. To achieve this, I would like to use Office Web Components (OWC 9 or 10), a Microsoft ActiveX component. My questions are:
* Can you use it with NT operating systems or Must it be in Windows 2000/XP? * Do anyone has experience in using it? and if yes, Are they easy and reliable to use? * Are there any other free components out there?
any decent resources for using the Office Chart components? I've had a look around the MSDN but it's not very comprehensive and doesn't actually have any reference guides. Most resources say to refer to the help file that comes with the package but I can't find any versions of this.
Does anyone know of a way to access the document properties of an office document using ASP? I need to be able to read things like the Title, Author, and Comments fields and pull that information into a web page.

I have generated Bar, Line and Pie charts using the MSOWC.DLL and its fantastic.
The ONLY problem I have encountered is when generating Pie charts it shows the quntities of each piece inside the Pie chart and its very hard to read. But in Excel it shows outside the Pie chart. So, I want to find out a solution for this.
I am facing some problems with generating the word documents usin ASP pages. This is the automated process and it is breaking often Since Microsoft is not providing any support for this issue, I though using WordPerfect 12 for the automated document generation would hel me a lot. Is there any possibility of facing the same problem with wor perfect too?
Since I updated Office 2000 to SP3, my ASP code has failed when executing this function:
(the HPageBreaks.Add line fails) function insertPageBreak ( xlsObject, strLocation ) with xlsObject .Range( strLocation ).Select .ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.HPageBreaks.Add .Range( strLocation ) end with end function
Parameters: xlsObject is a valid object of excel created with: Set xls = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
strLocation is a string in the form "Axx" where xx is the current row number, e.g. "A54"
I had to uninstall and reinstall Office 2000 without service pack 3 in order for it to work....
In office web components u can use Excel through web with almost the same functionality. I have an emergency in finding out if it is possible in asp to save the changes u make to the spreadsheet though web to the original file in the web server.
I'm having difficulty getting winword.exe processes to die on our development server when using
SET objWord = CreateObject("word.application") from an .ASP page.
This problem exists on our development server only as we are still using Office 2000 components in production. No probs in production with the current code which has been in use for a couple of years now.
I have to get these ASP pages working with word 2003 to avoid a rewrite of a few applications.
I've tried using objWord.Quit and setting the object to "Nothing" but it has no effect on the running process on the server.
Both development and prod servers are Win 2003 Server.
I have a dynamically-generated asp web page which uses Office Web Components to display an Excel bar chart of the user-selected data. The page works fine, but the users would like to copy-n-paste the displayed bar chart from the web page and insert it into an email (MS Outlook) or report (MS Word or MS PowerPoint).
Is there any way of supporting this copy/paste functionality? When you right-click on the chart in the displayed web page (viewed with MSIE6), you are only given the pop-up button [About...] which displays the "About Microsoft Office Web Components" splash window ("Version 9.0.0.8028 SP-3" etc.)
Currently, the only work-around is to "Print-Screen", trim using Paint, and then paste into the destination. This is too tedious and beyond the capabilities of some of the users.
One of my programmers is using Office Web Components in classic ASP to create, fill and format an Excel spreadsheet. Everything is fine except when he creates Merged cells the performance drops dramatically. He has investigated the 'Center Across Cells' alternative but cannot get it working using Office Web Comonents.
Has anyone come across this problem or even better has a solution?
