I am an experienced developer, but when it comes to developing for Office,
I'm a complete novice. My last experience with doing anything Office
related dates back 4 or 5 years. Things have changed a bit since then.
What I'm attempting to do seems like it should be relatively
straightforward. From an ASP.NET (C#) web application, I want to generate a
Word document and stream it to the user. The document can either be
generated from scratch or loaded and filled in from some sort of template.
The Word document has a standard format to it, my code needs to "fill in the
blanks" based on data from our database. I've Google'd a bunch but have
been unable to get headed in the right direction.
From a high level, what are the options? I'd like something efficient (i.e.
I don't want to be kicking off a Word process every time this happens as the
server would bog down quickly).
Thanks for the assistance.
