ASP to PDF,...

[GTN170777]

Hi All,

I found a nice little peice of code that displays the data on the page as an
excel spreadsheet --

<%
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
%>


I was just wondering whether there is something similar for PDF???

Thanks again....

That doesn't actually generate an Excel spreadsheet - all it does is cause
the browser to load Excel to read the output, and as Excel can parse CSV,
fixed width text, HTML, and other formats it'll just open it and deal with
it.
