Hi all,
I am trying to dynamically sort our flow of data and documents with the use of vb.net applications....
We get a lot of order details in from various sources and each has its own way of working... yet all of the data COULD be used to create one route through....
I have already taken the step to collate all data from every possible input source (table, csv, tab), so i now have a central source of data to play with.
Previously the scripts built html pages and printed them... As i'm working with vb.net can i not produce the next application in the process so that it picks up data that meet the requirement (orders and items) and have these print through vb.net itself?
I have started playing with reports but am at a complete loss, also will need to pull data from the orders table with a sub report for order items, is this possible?
And finally i need it to do this and print through code with no user intervention (timed).... any help there...
Ideally i want this to run as a windows service rather than an application.... is this also possible?
Cheers
