My database has a list of Word file locations for any given customer. I want to be able to view/open all those files at the same time so that they can be viewed in the order that they were created.

One possibility is that I could do this in Word, another is some sort of ASP.

I was wondering if this sort of thing had come up before and what approach was used e.g. I could write this as a word app and open all the files or open one file and append the others so that it was all together, presumably I could do something similar in ASP (which I would prefer as it makes it more accessible).

Anyone have any thoughts/suggestions/inspiration?

thanks in advance

have a page named openWordFile.asp or something similar
have it's
Response.ContentType = "application/msword"

and call that page for every document.
this will open word documents.
