Need to do a mail merge for ASP.NET application. Considered just programatically using word directly but this has liscening implications and is not recommended [URL] So was looking into openXML / Word Automation Services. But not sure if can easily achieve a mail merge via this?
View 1 RepliesWhat is the best way to do this. I dont have access to the database since it is firewalled. It needs to be done throught the web interface. I can generate a csv file and plug it into the word document, but it seems cumbersome to me. Is there any better way to do this?
View 1 RepliesI have all the data in excel/or some of database which has forexample to and from email addresses,names etc. I need to Mail Merge data into Word Document and this word document should be editable for any additions or modifications. Need to have the ability to type in the text or attach an attachment. should be filled with all the To,CC,subject fields from database/excel sheet and send an email. I need all this on a web page so i can distribute this webpage url to the user and he can get all this.
Is there any way to do this and if some one provide me some links to work on this or send me some code for this. I really donot have any idea and need to start from starch on how to accomplish this task.
I need to create some mail merge documents and was wondering if anyone knew the best way of doing this from asp.net. Currently I have set up .dot template files with bookmarks and then use COM to open these files pass the data and save. I can then stream the file to the users desktop. The issue i have is that to get this working when i release it is by installing Wrord on the server which I would prefer not to do.
way of passing data to word docs and then opening them to the user. The reason why i need to use word, is that the user needs to be able to modify the doc.
I am planning to create HR Management System using asp.net & sql server 2005. In this application we need to manage different kinds of Employee Documents like Offer letter,Salary certificate etc.. Now,What we need is we will store templates for these documents(ms word,excel) in the application and needs to genereate these documets corresponding to the selected employee like mail merge.
View 3 Repliesusing asp.net 4 we do a lot of Word merges at work. rather than using the complicated conditional statements of Word i want to embed my own syntax. something like:
Dear Mr. { select lastname from users where userid = 7 },
Your invoice for this quarter is: ${ select amount from invoices where userid = 7 }.......
ideally, i'd like this to get turned into: string.Format("Dear Mr. {0}, Your invoice for this quarter is: ${1}", sqlEval[0], sqlEval[1]);
i'm looking for a way to implement a simple ail merge with iTextSharp library.
I have data stored in database (addresses) and a pdf template.
I need to create a single pdf file where each page contains one address.
How can i do this?
I'm having some difficulty merging multiple word documents together using Microsoft Office Interop Assemblies (Office 2007) and ASP.NET 3.5. I'm able to merge the documents, but some of my formatting is missing (namely the fonts and images). My current merge code is shown below.
private void CombineDocuments() {
object wdPageBreak = 7;
object wdStory = 6;
object oMissing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
object oFalse = false;
object oTrue = true;
string fileDirectory = @"C:documents";
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application WordApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application();
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document wDoc = WordApp.Documents.Add(ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);
string[] wordFiles = Directory.GetFiles(fileDirectory, "*.doc");
for (int i = 0; i < wordFiles.Length; i++) {
string file = wordFiles[i];
wDoc.Application.Selection.Range.InsertFile(file, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oFalse);
wDoc.Application.Selection.Range.InsertBreak(ref wdPageBreak);
wDoc.Application.Selection.EndKey(ref wdStory, ref oMissing);
}
string combineDocName = Path.Combine(fileDirectory, "Merged Document.doc");
if (File.Exists(combineDocName))
File.Delete(combineDocName);
object combineDocNameObj = combineDocName;
wDoc.SaveAs(ref combineDocNameObj, ref m_WordDocumentType, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);
}
I don't care necessarily how this is accomplished. It could output via PDF if it had to. I just want the formatting to carry over.

In first SP @code parameter is column in table that I don't want accept duplicate value and condition of that is:
IF NOT EXISTS(SELECT behcode FROM Estate_p WHERE code = @code)

I have a web app that runs on local and use merge replcation using sql server 2005 standard on the server and sql express 2005 on clients on XP. As you know, XP Pro laptops are getting hard to find. We are trying to change to Windows 7 Pro x64. I installed SQL Express 2005 and I don't see a subscription on "Sync Center" after I created local subscription using SSMS. I normally see the subscription in Synchronize in XP Pro right away.
I googled about this issue and not really have a good solution. There is one link saying Windows 7 not supporting Express 2005 anymore. [URL] If so, I would like to know what would be a solution such as can I use Sql Express 2008 R2 instead of Sql Express 2005 for client even if the server is still SQL Server 2005 Standard edition. We are planning to upgrade, but we need to hire 5 to 10 people now. My boss does not want us to keep using XP Pro.

The website is over half way done and the functionality for the blog is (except for adding posts) is already implemented and working correctlyI have a SQLExpress 2008 backendBlog posts are rendered on the page with full HTML markup within a label control.
All of the above is done and working. Though I am essentially new to creating websites with ASP.NET, CSS and SQL, I am sure that I could simply carry on and make a login page with some controls that would allow me to add records (blog posts) directly to the database on the host server. However, I am fearful of doing this because I know that malicious code can be passed in this way. Also, because of my lack of knowledge, the only way that I know of to pass the code from a control to the database is to disable validation for the page the control is on. Without a doubt I do not want to do that.
So what are my options for getting blog posts into the database? Is it safest for me to fully create the post in html and update a copy of the database that resides on my local machine? If I do it this way, how can I merge the records from the database on the local machine with the records on the remote server?
