ASPX and Word question

[Mike]

Hi 2 all,

I have a question and hope that some of you might been able to give me a
hint or something.
I am bulding a web application where i need to provide the functionality to
start a word document and to fill on some places some data, like name adress
etc...
So people can select from a listbox a type of word document "Template"and
automaticly the word document is filled in with the right information and
ready to print.

Is there on the internet or a good book some kind of examples i can use, for
my problem or does any have a idea how to tackle this problem...

Thanx in advance,


Mike

Hi Mike,
I have this on my web site. I have a default Word document where it is like
.. Dear &user, blah blah blah ... From: &me...
then the program opens the word document and replaces &user with the
person's name and the &me with another name... and saves it as a new
document...
i can email you the code if you'd like

If you have more advanced needs, I'd recommend going with a 3rd party
component, such as one of these:
