    kurt your going to have to provide a lot more information, i think you need to "think outside of the box" on this one.

    you can create a pdf from raw text, I can post an example of that, but as soon as you want formatting/images/ anything other than raw text, you are really talking about using something (Internet explorer for html, excel,word, etc),

    and then converting a saved document from that medium to a pdf. it's something i've done in .NET and other languages, but it's not a one line wonder in TSQL, AFAIK.

    tell us your real requirement...is it a report from Reporting Services you want to pdf for example?

    what are you trying to do specifically?

    That should all be handled by that app that takes the order, not a job for sql server.

    not enough information kurt; remember we are not in your cube, looking over your shoulder, knowing what you know.

    a purchase order is a form with a specific layout. it's not some generic object that we know what it looks like in TSQL. where does the purchase order model reside?

    RTF? Word? Quicken? Quickbooks? Great Plains? doesn't your application that takes the orders have the ability to generate/print that document?

    Then write a service or another app that process the orders and sends the pdfs.

    That should NOT be handled by SQL Server.

    no. not possible.

    if it's not raw text, it must be done outside of SQL server if it must be a pdf.

    you could generate an html document in TSQL, with links to images or embedded in an email, but not a pdf.

    It is possible and works. The solution is not advanced, but stable. In our company, using SQL is generated thousands of pdf's. TSQL Procedure communicates with Webservice, who runs the Crystal Reports engine. As a result of such a solution we can achieve as a result of the SQL query the PDF document.

    Heh... not if your Websevice is down or you can't get to the Crystal Reports engine. The OP was asking for a way to do it all from SQL Server. 😉
