Generate a *.doc(x) report

[TiagoRibeiro]

Hi,

I'm developing a Web Application using the Javascript API. I need to make a report in an editable format, preferably in .doc or .docx format. I saw the sample to generate a PDF report using Python geoprocessing. Is it possible to generate a doc file with python, and hand it back to the Web Application?

Thx.

Tiago

Could you use rtf?

Could you use rtf?

Yea, of course. It's editable, and MSWord can open it. Is it easier in rft?

[BaileyLipscomb1]

I personally think it is.

And can you give me some example in how to accomplish it, or maybe give me some hints?
I've a got a big "to-do" list for this application, so I don't know when I'll start the report part, but it would be nice to have something to build on...

This is a small sample.

//Open the file
rtfFile=open(r"C:\test.rtf","w")
//Write to the file
rtfFile.write("Hello, World.")
//Close the file
rtfFile.close()
