I am planning to use PDF as a final report so that users can save what they
have entered in the asp.aspx form to their own hard disk. Is there a
component or control that will handle this ? I donot wish to use Crystal
Report nor SQL Report.

All I need is: when the use presses the "Print" button, my asp.aspx form
will print the html format for them. If "Print to PDF File" is pressed, then
the asp.aspx form will first write all fields as they appear on the web form
to a PDF file and automatically send it into the user's pc Acrobat reader.

Thanks

John
