I'm using ASP to generate an RTF (rich text) file, via the FSO. No problems with text, but when it comes to inserting images, the files have to be embedded as either binary or hex.
Try as I might, I can't get binary to work (Word b0rks trying to open the resulting file). When I create a simple RTF in Wordpad and then view its source, Wordpad seems to be embedding the image as hex. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I could read an image file off the disk in hex format for writing into my RTF?
Does anyone know of a "pure ASP" upload script that does not use the binary read? I am sure many people are looking for this as well..as you cannot use the binary and request.form in the same script. I am trying to integrate a file upload into an already built script using request.form.
Im writing a web interface for a CRM product which has the ability to store files within a database... Now, the problem is, these files are binary files, and VBScript doesn't have support for binary files (as far as i know...)...
To overcome this i wrote a component (ActiveX DLL) in VB6. This component works fine, but as soon as i use it in ASP, my computer beeps and then sits there looking like it's doing something forever...
If lJt = "GENERAL" OR lJt = "GOODS_DETAIL" Then 29: Set objUpload = Server.CreateObject("DXUpload.Form") lAction = objUpload( "ACTION" ) Else lAction = request( "ACTION" ) End If

here's my code... I can't see why this error occured...
I am passing file through aspSmartUpload by using input file form control in my form. But I cannot use Request.Form("Variable") command in my called asp. And it says you cannot use it during or after binary read. I guess aspsmartupload my have resolution for its problem.
I have an exe file on a server that reads an XML file ( as a parameter) and generates a new file for downloading. However, most servers won't allow an exe file to create the new binary file. Is there any way that I can execute the exe file and have it download straight to the client instead of saving to the server?
When I run an asp script, I can view the contents on the screen in pdf format. But instead of displaying the information to the screen, I want to be able to save the same information into a binary file with a pdf extension. Does anybody know how to do that?
I have listed the coded that writes it to the screen, but now want to be able to write the information into a file ....
I need to extract some blobs (chm files, actually) from a database and save their contents on the server (recreate chm files).
I tried to do it in several ways (writing the contents to a stream and save the stream to file, writing the contents directly to file, I couldn't figure out how to do it by using the class ADODB.File) but none of them worked.
This works with most every file type I've run across (jpg, gif, doc, ppt, xls, etc..). Normally when the user tries to access a file, a download window pops up asking the user whether he/she wants to open or save the file.
However, when the file is a zip file, the user just receives a blank screen instead of the usual download window. Has any one run into this problem? If yes, how did you resolve it?
i have an ASP (iis v5.0) application that generates a pdf file and this file is saved to the server. it is saved in a location not available to web users. i have an asp script (below) that sends the pdf file to the user as a binary stream. So that the user specifies which file to upload, the script performs some security checking and if it passes, it sends the pdf document.
This works great in HTTP, but i want to do this using SSL. When i try the same thing over SSL, it gives me a 'File Download' dialog box with Open, Save, Cancel, More Info. The file name is the name of my script and file type is 'Adobe Acrobat Control for ActiveX'.
When i click Save or Open i get an error message: Internet Explorer cannot download [scriptname] IE was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later.
The key to all this is that the report can change and i need to make sure the data doesn't get cached along the way. Hence there are a bunch of header manipulation commands included in the send function. Code:
I have one EXE file that customer need to download from my website. But I have one text file of Max 250 bytes of text in in that I want to append to the END of the Binary EXE file and give that for download to user. How can I do that. Please suggest. I think we need to go for some BinaryWrite kind of procedure using ADO Stream.
I'm trying to setup an ASP page to POST an image across to another page- essentially simulating what a browser does when you use <input type=file> in a HTML form.
I'm able to correctly setup the headers etc and do the POST, but I'm unable to include the binary data of the image.
The only way i've been able to do it is if I base64 encode the image. I'm using MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP to do the POST, and I can't seem to do the .send with a form body that includes the binary data of the image. Code:
I want to read an asp file as a text file. The problem is that the file that I want it to read is located on a server. For example: I want to read te content of this file: http://www.bnro.ro/Ro/Info/default.asp . I want to look after some values in that file.
I have an asp application in which, a page generates reports depending upon the id passed to it. For eg. printpage.asp?id=52 . Now I have a Print button on this page on clicking of which the contents of the page should be read and passed to the activex dll which I have prepared for printing the page.( I had to do this because the printer is installed on the server where the application resides and it should print on the server printer).
Now my question is how to read the asp file (say printpage.asp?id=52) contents in such a way that the fonts and formatting should remain the same, as that content will be printed on the server printer using Active X dll.

I need to be able to read a tab delimited text file with an asp page so that I can stuff the fields into a sql table.I really don't know how you can do that, I checked the books I have and have been running around the internet trying to find the answer when I found this site.I cannot use a bulk insert statement because I don't have that level of access to the sql server. and I was assured that "BCP is indeed a command-line only utility and cannot be launched from ASP. You could parse the text file with ASP and generate INSERT statements that you then execute against the database. Routines for parsing tab-delimited files can be had by searching for them on google quite easily." by the system administrator
