I wouldn't say that I like this, but you can use win32all to script com objects, and since both word and excel are com enabled, you can have your server open up word/excel and manipulate documents. I've done this before outside of TurboGears, and it works reasonably well. I remember some strange ideosyncracies in the word COM api, but we did get ultimately get it to work reliably. Of course, this only works if you're running on windows and you're willing to install word/excel on your server. But it does allow you the maximum possible flexibility in what documents you want to create. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
