hi

Posted by Abdul on May 13, 2001 at 2:44 AM

even i had the same problem. I had to do something like this.
I had to generate letters on fly that had to be sent to the client in a certain format.The client would get the letters in mail.I had to do was invoke the word document using java control its properties and then generate the letters depending on the status of the employee in the database and send him the letter.I was able to open the instance of the word but could not control its property. So finally i had to download all the information on the client and give him an button to click on click of which i invoked the ActivexObject provided by IE and open the word document and thenn generate the letters for him to view or print.
I would still like to know wheteher we can control the properties of word like drawing tables and so on using java
bye
