Newbie Query - Simple Mail Merge into new window

[Frankp2112]

Hi,
I have the simple mail merge working but ideally would like it to output to a new browser window. Is this possible?
Thanks
Francis

Hi
Thanks for your inquiry. I think you can achieve this using javascript. For example on the main page you should have html button like the following:
<input id="btnGenerateDoc" type="button" value="Generate Document" onclick="window.open('GenerateDoc.aspx','new','width=900,height=600,toolbar=1')" />
Then you should create GenereateDoc.aspx and generate the document on PageLoad of this page as shown in the following code:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    // Here you can generate your file
    Document doc = new Document();
    DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
    builder.Write("Hello world");
    // Save document
    doc.Save("out.doc", SaveFormat.Doc, SaveType.OpenInBrowser, Response);
}

Hope this helps.
Best regards.
