I have written a standalone application to send newsletter. Meanwhile, I would like to save the newsletter as dnn page.

I am using asp.net (with FCKEditor) to write my newsletter module. What i want is when i send a newsletter to others, it can automatically write a page in dnn and so if the people cannot read the newsletter in email, they can read it in the dnn site. that is, i supposed i need to write something related to the dnn database... but i don't know how to do it.

Can you advice me, please?
Thank you.

If you want to fully integrate it you could do something like the following....

1.  Create a new page in DNN

2.  Add an HTML/Text module to the page (Note the control id)

3.  From your application update the text value for the module referenced in item 2.  Thus loading the page with the content.

Steps 1 and 2 would be manual processes, but I guess it might even be possible to do those via code but I would have to look into the specifics of doing that.

Thank you.

But I don't understand step 3. I would like to know how to update the text value for the module?

Thank you.

The text/html module stores its information in the HtmlText table in the database.  If you have the moduleId you can use a simple SQL Query to insert the text into the module.

In looking in a bit more detail you could even create the page dynamically using the stored procedures provided by DNN to acheive full integration.
