<SCRIPT RUNAT=SERVER LANGUAGE=VBSCRIPT>
  'Sets the content type
  Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
  'Specify filename for download
  Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=Orders.DBF"

  'Write DBF file to the client
  Response.BinaryWrite DBF.GetFile(ADORS)
  
  'Close recordset
  ADORS.Close
</SCRIPT>

Send two recordsets in MDB

  Set ADORS = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
  Set MDB = CreateObject("RSConvert.MDB")
  
  'Open table Orders
  ADORS.Open "Orders", "DSN=ADOSamples"
  'Add table "Orders" to database
  MDB.AddRS ADORS
  ADORS.Close

  'Open table Payments
  ADORS.Open "Payments", "DSN=ADOSamples"
  'Add table "Payments" to database
  MDB.AddRS ADORS
  ADORS.Close
