asp_web_howto thread: Reports from Access/SQL


Message #1 by Raman Verma <f741r@u...> on Fri, 24 Aug 2001 16:03:01 -0300
Hello



I have a functioning web project that adds,edits,deletes records in a database 

with many tables and fields.



I want to be able to run reports, similar to those in ACCESS. We used to have 

all this data in a nonfuncitonable excel spreadsheet and instead, I moved it 

to ACCESS. However, everyone was used to the spreadsheet and that's the format 

they want the reports to appear in, not as a webpage. Is this possible?



Are there any other methods to run nice reports from ASP pages?



Any help would be appreciated!



Thanks

Raman

One solution would be to use DataDynamics ActiveReports.  This is a good

reporting product with browser support.

Raman,



Look into using the access snap viewer



You can use sql 2000(via linked tables) or access.  What you do is create

the access report, then pass in the parameters via your asp page.  You can

then use the snap viewer to display them in your site.



You can email me offlist  for a code example if you'd like.
