sending data to MS Word

Marre

Hi all!

I would like to get data from a webform, push a button and fire up Word.
Here i would like to retrieve data from my webform.

Is there a way to do this without using chrystal reports?

Marre,

Unfortunately no. Unless you change the settings in the client's
browser (which only they can do, not you), you won't be able to do this. If
a web page had the ability to run a program on the user's machine, it would
be a huge security hole.

The only way you are going to get around this is if you develop an
ActiveX control which the user agrees to install, or a .NET control which
the user gives the appropriate rights to.

Hope this helps.
