Mail Merge
Does anyone know whether it is possible to effect a mail merge to MSWord
using VBScript in an asp file? I know it is possible to produce a doc
file and force a download using
Response.ContentType = "application/msword"
Response.AddHeader content-disposition","attachment;filename=myfile.doc"
but can I interate through a bunch of records and produce, say, a
separate invoice for each one by merging? I know how to iterate through
the records and write them out
Imitating Mail Merge
I have an ASP intranet application that is required to produce Word documents merged with data from a database.I originally looked at automating Word's mail merge capabilities, but nixed that idea since I learned it's not a good idea to try to automate Word on the server
decided to have the Word templates saved as RTF files and to write a parser/merger myself.since Word produces such complicated RTF code,until we decided that we were going to combine multiple templates into one final Word document with, potentiall, different header and footers for each section/template doc.
I'm having a problem figuring out how to get sections inserted into the combined RTF doc, so I'm thinking perhaps I should rethink my solution.how to produce database merged documents from templates created by users on a Web server? We may have some budget, sothird-party tools would be welcome, as well.
Mail Merge With Oracle
I used some example code from MS site (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/285176/en-us) to create an ASP page that executes a mail merge in word from a web page. For some reason when it attempts to run the getdata.asp part I always get theerror ..."The connection cannot be used to perform this operation. It is either closed or invalid in this context.
I have tried numerous ways to connecto to the database and form the record set but still get the same error.
VBScript : Word : Mail Merge
I have a document. Top right is a logo, there is a space for an address, space for content and space for extra details (3 sections). This can be seen as a normal word template.
I pull in information from a DB so have values: Address, Content, Details. I need to insert these values into their relevant places and produce the word document from the template so user can open/save it.

I understand the concept since I've done it in a couple other
programming languages.

I have two tables:
customermaster (id,name,email,mailinglists)
example: 1,john doe, Join Bytes!, NULL
emailmaster (email,listid)
example:
Join Bytes! 1
Join Bytes! 8
I want to get rid of the emailmaster table and merge the listids, into the mailinglists field inside customermaster so that I will have something like 1,8,14,25,99 in the mailinglists field for the email address Join Bytes. How can I accomplish this for MS SQL database?
Merge To Records In Access
I have a single table.
ID Code Description Colour Qty
1 0001 T-Shirt Black 5
2 0002 Soccer Ball Red 1
3 0001 T-Shirt Black 2
4 0001 T-Shirt Navy 6
What I need to do using ASP is take record 1 and merge it with record 3. By this I mean I need to show only a singular qty for the product code 0001.
i.e.
ID Code Description Colour Qty
1 0001 T-Shirt Black 7

4 0001 T-Shirt Navy 6
Merge XML And XSL And Edit Whit ASP
I would like to sort my XML output and still be able to manipulate/alter/modify the XML data by use of some simple ASP code. (I’m going to slice it afterwards, and bake it in to a cornbread. But that’s a story for the cocking forum I’m a member off.)
I’ve no idea if this is ever going to work, but here is what I did.
- I’ve got an XML file; data.xml.
- I’ve got an XSL file; xmlxsl.xsl
The only reason I’m using a XSL file is because (I think) it will enable me to sort the XML data ascending. And of naturally a ASP script to merge al those files together and then to slightly modify the XML output. Code:

Merge / Appending Multiple PDFs Together
I need to take a bunch of PDFs that I have made using Appligent's FDFMerge and append them together. I know I could use Appligent's AppendPDF. But I was wondering if there were any free toolkits that I could use with a bit more work out there?
I cannot tell what on the Adobe site would be a candidate for me to even look at. The Acrobat SDK seems to be for Acrobat Reader plugins. Not what I am going for. The PDF library seems a candidate, but what *is* it? A C library? I cannot use a C library unless it has a COM wrapper.
Merge Lines In A Text File
I am working with an old line-feed printer text file. There are characters in the first position of each line that tell the printer what to do, i.e. print this line and advance paper, print and do not advance. when processing this text file for conversion to another text file I can't seem to work out the code for merging two lines. For example,
Type: Location: Quantity:
+ 123 London 45000
After processing the line should look like this:
Type: 123 Location: London Quantity: 45000
I understand the concept but have no idea how to actually merge the two lines with code.

Mail Insertion Hack On Send Mail Form
I'm using CDO to send mail to the site owner from ASP pages with forms.
Recently one of my forms is occasionally sending email with what seems
to be an insertion which is replacing the plain text part of the email
with something else. Looking at the server sent email source, the
hacked emails have the following:
Sending Mail Using ASP/VBScript To Exchange Mail Box
Here's the scenario. I'm currently using cdosys/asp to send mail to
our SMTP server. We use a product called MailFilter to check for SPAM.
It doesn't work very well. If MailFilter isn't working cdosys also has
problems and emails don't get sent. As these email are confirmations
for customer's bookings this means lots of customers calling to see
where their confirmation emails have gone. The root of the problem is
MailFilter but that here to stay. So I had this thought of sending the
message to a queue of some sort so at least they will get to the
customer eventually rather than being lost for good. So here's the
question:
Can I/How do I send messages to a mailbox on our exchange server using
cdo.message?
Invalid Mail Address Gives Error In CDO Mail
I'm using CDO from my vb component to fire email. The problem is
whenever one of the email addresses in to, or cc is wrong then none of
the mails are fired even to the correct addresses. It gives an error
like
The server rejected one or more recipient addresses. The server
response was: 550 Relaying denied for <xfd@wre.com>
My code goes like this. Why is the mail server trying to look for the
validation of email ids??I want that atleast the mail should be fired
to the correct email addresses rather than no email fire. Can i
achieve that.
Dim iMsg As New CDO.Message
Dim iConf As New CDO.Configuration
With iConf
.Fields.Item(cdoSendUsingMethod) = cdoSendUsingPort
.Fields.Item(cdoSMTPConnectionTimeout) = 10 ' quick timeout
.Fields.Item(cdoSMTPAuthenticate) = cdoBasic
.Fields.Item(cdoSendUserName) = "username"
.Fields.Item(cdoSendPassword) = "password"
.Fields.Item(cdoURLProxyServer) = "server:80"
.Fields.Item(cdoURLProxyBypass) = "<local>"
.Fields.Item(cdoURLGetLatestVersion) = True
.Fields.Update
End With
Set iMsg.Configuration = iConf

INPUT Tags
I have found that places double quotes ' "text" ' around text inside (INPUT) tags results in everything after the initial quote, '"' gets truncated.
I'm passing the form information to another form to allow the user to look over and validate what they're submitting, then they will click the submit
button to send it all along.
I'm finding that in the validation form, the quoted text inside the (INPUT) tag gets truncated. However, the quoted text inside a TEXTAREA tag does not.
ASP In Body Tags
i've got a problem with asp tags in the <body>.Looks like this:

Now is on the top of my site written: 0 AND len(variable1) > 0 then %>onload="javascript:testSite1();" 0 AND len(variable2) > 0 then %>onload="javascript:test and the caption is not on the top of the site!

Nesting Of <% %> Tags
can I nest <% %> tags?
This is what I want to do:
This statment
<td width="<%response.write span%> %"><img src=<% response.write "'/images/" & trim(records.Fields("c1_image")) & "'" %> height=100>
Generates this HTML code

("c1_image")
CAN YOU SEE WHERE I'M GOING WITH THIS?
I need the field name in my records.fields statement to be avariable based on a loop counter....NESTED <% %> tags, or response.write or whatever.
