I have verified that the file exists. Is there another method for prompting users to save a file to their local machine?
I believe this question has been asked before but I still couldn't find the appropriate answer.
My scenario is like this:
When the user click on a button, it will dynamically generate a .xls and prompt the user to download.I have used transmitfile but it doesn't allows the file to be deleted. I have also used outputstream.write but it doesn't delete the file after flush. Instead it will hold onto the .xls and no modification can be done to the file.
I'm currently trying to write data (client machine) into a xml file where the user can save. However, I want the users to be able to decide on where they want to save this written xml file. Is there any controls or codes that I can use to allow the users to save the file?.

View 4 RepliesIn our application, we allow user to upload documents which can be PDF, Doc, XLS, TXT. Uploaded documents will be saved on web server. We need to display link for each document user uploaded and when user click on that link, it should open relevant document. it is expected to have required software to open relevant documents.
To upload document, we use saveAs method of FileUpload control and it works absolutely fine.Now, how to view it?I believe, i need to copy/download file to local user machine and need to open it using Process.Start.For that i need to find user local temp directory. if i put path.GetTempPath(), it gives me web server directory and copy file there.
File.Copy(
sPath + dataReader["url"].ToString(),
Path.GetTempPath() + dataReader["url"].ToString(),
true);
I want to create an asp.net application which allow user to specify text file path and create a text file on the specified location by doing some processing from the sql server database.for specifying path of the txt file i am using setting
.xmlsetting.xml
<TextFilePath> "D:Text" <TextFilePath> //as specified by the user.
The code is working fine if it is not published Once the application is uploaded on the server(published) and run under the virtual directory.
I am a newbie of asp.net.
The environment is .net 3.5 and C#.
There are files stored in sql server (datatype of column is varbinary in the database).
each record is in one record in that table (FILE_TABLE).
And there is another table (PATH_TABLE) to store the files paths.
for example,
when the user download the folder A (select an item on the tree and click a button on the client side),
there is one sub-folder B and two files A-1 and A-2.
in folder B, there is two files B-1 and B-2.
then, at the code behind (server), the server will get the files from the database and convert them (including the files and subfolders) to a .zip file (or other compressed files)
and then write a response (using the method HttpResponse.BinaryWrite(Byte[] xxx) )
to client side and let the user download.
after the download, the user can extract the compressed file and the structure of the folders and files keep unchanged.
