I'm using an ASP datagrid to write reports. The output is written to HTML in ASP using Response.Write statements.

Now the customer wants to e-mail these reports ala HTML. I don't know of any way to redirect the "Response.Write" HTML output to the string required by the HTML email object.

Am I going to need to find a new ASP datagrid object that can redirect output to email?

Suggestions?

Sam,

Did you check out the XMLHTTP solution I posted in your Off Topic post.
I believe the GET example will work for you.

Can you build a wrapper around respone.write and have the report generator call the wrapper instead of the response object ? If you do that it would be easy to redirect the output to a string builder class.

Not sure what you have in mind, but I'm thinking it looks like

If boolBuildString Then
string = string & "whatever goes here"
Else
Response.Write "whatever goes here"
End If


I'm thinking it's a way to go.
