I have been tasked with developing an online Purchase requisition system for my employers. This requisition system will submit the employees requisitions to a database for approval before they can buy their required products.
What I would like to do is offer the option of creating a word doc or pdf of the requisition details on submission to the database. This doc or pdf could then be emailed or printed and sent to a supplier for a quotation.
Is it possible to have a form do 2 functions at once? i.e. submit data to the database as well as creating this doc or pdf? Any info on how to create a doc or pdf from an asp form would be much appreciated.
Just wondered if it was possible to create a thumbnail / GIF image of a microsoft word document on the fly with ASP?
They seem to be able to do it on Microsoft.com (see http://office.microsoft.com/template...3601033&CTT=98, for example) - Is there a function which does this?

I'm trying to figure out how to run a script on my server which will go over a few folders of Word documents, and create html pages out of them which I can then serve to my users. Preferably I want to do this without installing anything else on the server, hopefully it's achievable with a scripting language like VBscript/ASP?
I am used to web programming in PHP,Perl, Java, but for this I need to use ASP, on IIS. I've Googled & Yahooed and not come up with much.
i would like to create the following one, but nor I know as. One index.asp that db catches one information as heading, hour of entrance and station time and shows in the page index. An example, let us assume that now they are 23:00, then the shown information will be inserted in the page index.asp in accordance with the current hour.
If it will have something registered in cadastre in db that it starts the 23:00 and it finishes the 01:00 will be in index, passing the hour it leaves and it enters another message with programmed hour.
If I have in db a message that would have to be shown of the 09:00 the 11:30, and now I am 11:20, the system analyze and show the information, until he is 11:31, when then I enter another one, and thus successively, they are menmsagens that in accordance with enter the hour of the server.

I want to create form in which user specify his details. But that mail should be take cc address from database and also that form have one attachment field.
Mail body must be in html format. Attachment and "from" his email field compulsory....
I don't know what they're called, but you know the form: The page displays a "code", usually on a similar color background (dark gray), and the text is all squiggly.
It's an attempt to foil the bots that go out and process forms. The user has to type in the code they see, when the graphic itself should be unreadable by character recognition engines.
So, how are the graphics generated, and how do you implement this?
I have an asp page that gives results for a search from a previous page from streetguide.streets in MySql. The page displays the UserName of the person logged in.
I have the results of this query displayed inside a form with hidden variables. When the user clicks "save to my folder" I want it to create a table in the mysql db with the same name as the user name, and then write to this table.
I have it working if I created the table beforehand, but I want the table to be created dynamically upon form submission with the table name to match the persons user name.
Creating a form that allows people to search a ticket database. One criteria I would like to add is to give the people the option to sort the results by selecting criteria for a dropdown.
My first thought was to create 3 dropdowns with the same name, get the data and add it to the SQL string. It worked great except for when someone decided to leave anything blank. Here are my dropdowns here: Code:

I use asp to create a report, using content type I push it out as a word document. On my build this works fine, on my co workers it does not. The only difference between the two builds is I am on IE 5.5 sp2 and the other is 5.5 no sps. Unfortunatly I am in no position to get the machine and others like it onto sp 2 and the User agent variable is only returning 5.5.
The problem with the output on the no sps machine is that it opens in word with all the HTML tags visible Does anybody no a solution?

I cant seem to figure out how to ensure that a whole word is replaced within a string. For example, if I have an array with two items, "mpeg" and "mpeg4" and the text to look for is "blah blah mpeg4 blah blah"
the text to match with is the array, which is in a loop. how can i prevent "mpeg" from matching with part of "mpeg4"? i only want the whole word to match. do i have to use regexp here? vbscript functions seem inadequate.
I want to do a Ms Word document in a ASP page. I can do it, With the code lines:
///// Response.ContentType = "application/msword" Response.AddHeader "content-disposition", "inline; filename=OrderFax.doc" //// With these lines all document content show like a Word document.
But i can not change the MARGINS of this Word document.And Default left/right margins are very bigs.
I try it, change the <body> attributes and with styles, but this don't work, the margins are always the same.
How can i modify the margins of word document? I should do this with another method? Can I modify PC client settings to change the defaults margins of word document create througt the web?
My problem, i got a string that may can contain more than one word, it can contain upto ten, now my problem is i gotta replace some of the words, but with Replace, you can only do one word at a time? so how do i go about running thruogh the string and replacing all the relevant words, and putting them back into a string?
I'm currently working on an application that has to open word documents (word forms) and read and write data from/to it. But, unfortunately, the web server hasn't Word installed (my ISP...). Is there any other way to do that? I'm currently investigating about working with rtf documents, but the syntax is turning me crazy!!! Any idea/dll/other way to do that?
Is there a way to get records containing a whole word? I've heard regular expressions can do it, but I can't make one work in an ASP / MS Access SQL Query
sSQL="SELECT PageTitle FROM Pages WHERE PageTitle LIKE '%cat%' " rs.open etc
I am maintaining quite a few asp applications. In one of those, I have to change the response.redirect to a particular page. This application has more than fifty asp pages. Instead of going through manually through each page to find the response.redirect phrase, is there any tool that will find and report all occurences of response.redirect (in the present scenario) among all those fifty asp pages? If there is one I would like to know.
