Dynamically generate Word .DOC or Excel files

Discussion in 'ASP.NET / ASP.NET Core' started by joshablett, May 12, 2009.

  1. Has anyone found a good solution for programatically generating Word DOCs or Excel XLS files that include dynamically inserted images?

    I know there are add-ons (like Aspose), but they require server installation. I also know you can do it using Microsoft Office APIs, but they require a license of Office to be installed on the server. Also, DiscountASP.net says they don't support the Crystal Reports APIs that are bundled with .NET.

    Any other ideas?

    Thanks!

    Try using Office web component (OWC). The only limitation w/ OWC is it only work w/ Office 2003 and before.
