[AccessD] OT: ASP.Net Opening Access 2003 reports?

Hi Jim

Thanks for that link, very useful.

You may add that the article, in general, describes how to export a report to editable XML which could be useful in other scenarios.

It must be your luck day.  This was in the May 2003 issue of Smart
Access but it looks like M$ posted it in total at:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnsmart03/html/sa03e1.asp

I find it a most interesting idea.

Sander,

I read an interestig article a while back that detailed how to use
Access as the reporting engine for ASP.NET applications.  In short it
involves getting input from your user and running the report in Access
(installed on server I'd imagine).  The report is then exported to XML
from Access by your .NET app.  Access does a real good job of creating
XML/XSL so the reports will look like Access reports.

I hope that makes sense (and helps).

Hi group,

does anybody know how difficult it is to open a report in an Access 2003
database using Asp.Net?
We're using an intranet and VPN. So that shouldn't be the big issue.

Thnx in @vance.

Regards,

Sander
