Response.Conten t Type with word document problem.

Joan

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.Conten tType = "applicatio n/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.
Any suggestions???? ?

Try using fully qualified URLs for the pictures. In other words, make sure
the reference to the picture includes 'http://www.yoursite.co m' at the
start.

Thanks but that didn't work either. I'm using the html to place the
picture in the word document. Something like this: <img alt
src="http://mysite.com/Pics/mypic.jpg>. Is this the problem or do I
need to use Response.Write?

Anybody please help asap. I'm desperate.

Try saving the file your asp code is sending. Take a look at it in a text
editor (not word) and make sure everything looks right. Rename the file
from *.doc to *.htm and view it in your browser. If the pictures don't show
up there then there's still something wrong with the html your asp page is
writing. If they *do* show in the browser but *not* in Word, then you'd be
dealing with a Word issue and you'll probably have to ask your question in
another forum.

Good luck!

Thanks for your help. The pictures do show in the browser. I don't
think its a problem with the html the asp page is writing because then
the picture shouldn't have shown up in the browser. I think the
problem has something to do with just trying to display an image in a
word document that was created through an asp page. The problem is
definitely with asp - maybe something with the Response.Conten tType
but I'm not sure so I really don't know where else I would ask this
question. Thanks for your help though, hopefully something will turn
up. Anybody, any other suggestions.

Create a Word document displaying the image, save it as HTML and see if
there's a difference.
