View 4 RepliesMy company has just purchased a .net version of Cete Pdf Merger (great product btw). We use both .Net & asp code and will likely use java in the future as well.
The scenario is that one technology (asp, java, .net) would have a list of raw data such as an array of field names & values. This data would be posted to the web service that would then open a given pdf, match pdf form fields to the field names array, grab the corresponding value, populate it on the pdf, and then stream the pdf back to the user to download.
I want to create a .doc-file in my code behind and let the user download it somehow. How can this be done in the simplest way without saving the file at the server? I heard MemoryStream can be used but I'm not exactly sure how.

My goal is to create some Excel reports that users can download from my asp.net site. The data for the reports will come from an SQL database. I am using Visual Studio 2010 and the reports will be for Excel 2007.
View 2 RepliesThis should be pretty simple but I don't work on my website code too often so I thought I would ask about this. I have a download link for an application of mine on my website and I wanted to keep track of how many downloads are taking place so I want to create a counter. I added a table to the SQL database I already have on my website with the columns Downloads and CountID which is listed in the column properties as identity specification. At first I just had the column Downloads but when doing a query I was having problems so I added CountID and that made the query easy to do.
When the link on the download page on my website is clicked I wanted Downloads to increment by 1 each time. I used Visual Web Developer to build my site. Should I use a Web Method to increment that or is there a more direct method. I also noticed when I'm working in Visual Web Developer and I have the designer open for a webpage that in the toolbox items you have table and the icon looks the same as a table for an SQL Database. Should I perhaps use that? Add a table to this webpage and work with that?
User's need to "download" an excel sheet with data.
However this sheet need to be created on the fly (user's can check of which data they want exported).
From the user's point of view, it will just be a link "Download Now".
From coding point of view I will have an IList<MyClass> where MyClass say got members like EntryId, FirstName, LastName etc.
I do not want all fields to be dropped into the sheet (so I will need control over that in my code)
This sounds like what I'm after (since I'll always only have one sheet)
Create an HTML document and save it with a .xls extension - Excel will open it and treat it like a native Excel file. This method is very simple and, of course, free - however, it won't allow you to have more than one worksheet in the Excel workbook...

View 1 RepliesI'm working on a functionality in my asp.net web site that enables the user to download some files as a zip file. I'm using the DotNetZip library to generate the zip file.
My code looks like this:
protected void OkbtnZipExport_OnClickEvent(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var selectedDocumentIds = GetSelectedDocIds();
string archiveName = String.Format("archive-{0}.zip", DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MMM-dd-HHmmss"));
AddResponseDataForZipFile(Response, archiveName);
try
{
string errorMessage = Utils.ExportToZip(selectedDocumentIds, arkivdelSearchControl.GetbraArkivConnection(), Response.OutputStream);
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(errorMessage)).......
Now, if anything goes wrong, say the Utils.ExportToZip method fails, I want to present an error message to the user and not the download dialog. Do I have to remove some data from the Response object in order to cancel the download operation?

View 5 RepliesI would like to be able to download files from more then one directory from my ASP.NET website. I am at version 2.0. Is there a way to do this other than just repeating the code to download from one directory for each directory I want to download from?

What I'd like to donow though is have a separate communal directory that everyone can download from but also have subdirectories

View 6 RepliesI'm currently in the process of creating a webshop. This webshop supports theming, but I also want customers to choose a lay-out. I can create multiple masterpages and create a handler to dynamically set the correct master page. But some components, like the shopping cart, are controls which have to be present in the master page and are also used in the aspx pages. The shopping cart control for instance, has an Update method which is called whenever the user adds a product to their cart. So the question is: can I somehow create a default masterpage which has all the components on it, but still be able to create multiple lay-outs. And how should I reference that master page from the aspx pages? I also thought of creating an Interface class which defines the masterpage and it's public components, but I don't know if I can reference an interface from aspx pages.
