Hello,
I have just moved an ASP Classic website to discountasp.com. The website works fine with one exception. We were creating PDFs using ASPPDF for asp but now it looks like only ABCPDF.NET is available. My knowledge of asp.net is very limited at this time and I am planning on converting the site to asp.net soon but I really need to get the PDF working as soon as I can.
Is any of the following possible...
1)"wrap" the asppdf com control so I can use it at discountasp.com as a workaround for now? This would be the easiest for me as I would not need to change the asp classic code (maybe a little). Maybe place the asppdf com control in the .bin directory? The control does need registered in it's current form.
2) access the abcpdf.net component from a classic asp page?
3) write the pdf code in asp.net and then call that code from an asp classic page? I would need to pass a parameter, maybe two parameters to the pdf code
4) I am open to any suggestion other then migrate the website to asp.net at the moment as I need to get this up and working in the next few days if possible.
If you have any thoughts on this subject please let me know. (code samples would be wonderful!!)
Cheers,
Rhek
