I want to create a Word document in ASP, which will be subsequently emailed to a client, so it needs to look good, and the examples I have found so far have been too simplistic. I'm actually looking to be able to create a quotes for customers, so I imagine someone out there has done something similar. And as you can imagine, it has to be a fairly professional job.
I'm guessing that the best way to go about this is to use a template document and to just edit the fields? Anybody got any examples, pointers, suggestions, code for me to work from?
What I want to do is to create a web form that once submitted it takes the fields and opens a new instance of a Word Template and populates bookmarks within the document with the fields from the web form, then saves it to a specified location with a specified name. does anyone know of an article or tutorial about this.
#1 is not good because it forces the user through two dialogs. #2,#3 seem good because they open the document in IE, but the window does not have the corresponding document toolbar, so the user can not saveAs xxx.doc
How can I accomplish # 2 or #3 with IE showing a word document toolbar?
I have manage to create a word doc from lotus notes using the createobject("Word.Application"). Now I wanted to add some text in a field on the template. I want to know how to insert a newline in the field.Also I have created a table in the doc file, now i wanted to know how to place at a desired position in the file.
We have an application where the user fills out many screens and when they are done, we are supposed to display the text they entered in a word or excel format. That is fairly easily accomplished by changing the content type in the response object.
On one of the screens where they enter data, they also have the ability to upload a word document containing additional information. This is also not a problem, and is working fine.
Now they have decided that when we create the document with all of the text fields in it, they want to embed the word document that they uploaded. Is this possible? I have been trying to find a way to do this and so far haven't come up with anything.
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 am running window 2000 professional with IIS 5.0 installed. I know it is a ntfs permissions error and that IUSR_ComputerName needs permission to interface with word, i am just not sure which file needs to be the recipient of these permissions. I have located 'word.exe' in program files, set appropriate permission but no joy.
I have a system that Im about to start building it is in planning stage at the moment and if I was going to a database and keeping everything in HTML I would be right and not posting here at this stage.My client is after a system that they can register a new document enter in the basic information and on save, Create a Word document based on a Word Template prefilled with some of the data from the HTML form. Can any one point me in the direction of some? tutorials/code/tips/prebuilt systems that I can donate or buy from the developer/

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'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.
I'm trying to output some data from the db into a table but I'm getting a number of problems with the layout if all the words are together. The table stretches across the screen. I want to be able to output a number of words/characters and then insert a line break and then carry on with the rest of the output.
I have a Word doc already created that I want to open from an asp page. I want it to open in Word and allow the user to modify if necessary. I currently have it opening (using href), but it is opening in IE. I think I should be able to do it with javascript to open word and then call that function on the link to the doc. Can someone give me some pointers?
I have an MS Word template and wish to substitute certain values into certain parts of the document. I'm going to open the word doc using FSO. Is there any way to pass parameters in to a word doc when you open it like this?
I have created a word template containing logos. I want to be able to open the document and dynamically add data to it and save the file as something else. the problem is when I use the streamobject method it does not work! I can only add data if the file is a notepad (unicode file). Is there any way to do this? I can't find any ttutorials on the web.
Also I know how to write word documents using html and I cant use this method because when I open the document the image will not display. Is there a way to keep the image contained within the document?
If I can get either of the methods above to work that it would have solved my problem!
Or if anyone knows of other ways to creating a word document using logo's and dyanmic data then please let us know.

I've done some research on how to do a MS Word merge with data I read in an ASP application (using a SQL Server database). I understand the concept since I've done it in a couple other programming languages.

I am creating a word document from an asp page. I have no problems actaully creating the document and creating some tables that have data in them. I am using Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-word" to create the actual document. My problem is that I want to place a picture (which resides on the server) into the word document as well. However all I seem to get is the place for the image but a picture of an "x" meaning that the picture is missing.
