I know that you can create Word & Excel documents with 3rd party components, without having office installed on the client e.g. http://samples.infragistics.com/sllob/infragistics-word http://samples.infragistics.com/sllob/infragistics-excel
If you want a free component to do it, there might be a way to do it with the open office library and do it server side? But then you still need to find a way to send it to the client, as Greg mentioned -David Burela On 19 May 2012 13:36, Greg Keogh <g...@mira.net> wrote: > Les, one of my colleagues must be one of the few living people on earth who > has managed to decrypt the open office SDK and has written library code > that > creates documents directly.
