Hello
in my Asp.net web page (C# on backend) I use a Repeater, whose items consist of a title and a Flex chart (embedded .
swf file). I am trying to export the contents of the Repeater to a Word document. My problem is to convert the
SWF files into images and pass it on to the Word document.
The
swf object has a public function which returns a byteArray representation of itself (public function grabScreen():ByteArray), but I do not know how to call it directly from c#.
I have access to the mxml files, so I can make modifications to the
swf files, if needed.
The code is shown below, and your help is appreciated :)
.aspx
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" text="export to Word" onclick="print2"/>
<asp:Repeater ID="rptrQuestions" runat="server" OnItemDataBound="rptrQuestions_ItemDataBound" >

<tr>
<td>
<div align="center">
<asp:Label class="text" Text='<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Question_title")%>' runat="server" ID="lbl_title" NAME="lbl_title"/>
<br>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
