asp_web_howto thread: link to download a txt/excell file created on th the fly ?


Message #1 by adi@a... on Wed, 10 Apr 2002 12:29:18
Hi,

I would like to create a link that when clicked on by the user will 
perform the following:

1. Retreive some data from lets say a database.
2. create a text file / excell sheet file format from that data.
3. enable the user to download the created file.

Now, the problem is that I dont want that file to be stored on disk - just 
be online (realtime) downloaded - the file should never actually exist - 
just be transmitted in the right format to the user.

Is there a way to do so ?

Any help welcomed.

   DD
