In my asp.net application (an inhouse software) I want users to be able to use files from Network (filepath stored in database). I use the following code to download the files:
Is there anyway to open the file without downloading it in a web based application, i.e. open the file directly from the network so when the users edit it and save it, the actual file is changed.
Does anyone know how to use httpcontext.response.transmitfile or any other httpcontext function to download a file from a network drive instead of local drive?
When I tried to use context.Response.TransmitFile(DownloadPath) to download files, the DownloadPath has to be local drive. If it's a network drive, the download failed.

In 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.
I have a webpage that allows a user to download a specified file. When the file is ready to be fully downloaded (i.e I call the HttpResponse.End or HTTPRepone.Flush) the user is presented with a File Download dialogue.
Is there any way to determine what option the user has selected?
Have they Opened, Saved or Cancelled the File Download once the Flush or End has been sent?
I have a mail list where i can select many mails and download (with/without opening the mail). During the download process i update the mail status(download/open) and show the content in pdf. In normal browser dialog opens where user can save open or cancel options exits. But if the user cancel then the update process done on the mail should not happen. so i think about doing the update process if the user clicks open or save but how can i identity that client control (i think it depend on the browser)
The issue is present if i download and unopened mail and click cancel button in the dialog box the pdf creation code i have done is in this link
[URL]
which i used to open that dialog in browser to save pdf

I am downloading file from database using the following code. This code downloads an excel file from the database which has a macro attached to it when it is opened. This macro reads file name of the excel file and uses it for its computation. Everthing works file if user saves the file on his harddisk and then open if but if he directly opens the file from the dialog(by hitting 'Open' button) then file name of the opened excel file comes out be the name of the webform that has the above code and this leads to error in the macro. Is there any option through which i can control the name of the file if user directly opens the file from dialog or the option to disable or remove 'Open' button form the dialog?
I'm about to submit my pad file to multiple sharware sites but the pad file has to have a direct link to the download file and can't link to a download page which is what I would like to do, so I can track the traffic and get the downloader's email before allowing the download. I am running an ASP.NET site in VB. Is there a way to tell the web app to redirect to a specific aspx page when it receives a request for a specific file?
I am trying to create and write a file on a remote server using the below code:
[Code]....
but i am running into issues and getting errors. Below are some tries i have given. My IIS settings are 'Anonymous Access' checked and also 'Integrated windows authentication' checked.
a. As i understand asp.net site would run using ASPNET account, i tried giving full permission to ASPNET account to the folder on the remote server (where i want to drop the file). But i am getting this error - "Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password"
b. The other thing i tried is giving full permissions to 'Everyone' to the remote server folder. But i get the same error as above. But when in my web.config i enable impersonation by using: [Code]....
then the error goes away and everything works fine as expected. The file gets dropped to the network share.
why the scenario (a) doesn't work because that should work as if i give ASPNET account full access to the folder, and my website is running under the same account, then it should work.
Also, in the scenario (b), i believe it is using my domain account, as the impersonation is true without specifying any username and password and also the remote server folder has Everyone access to full control. BUT, as a security breach, i cannot use Everyone account to the remote folder. In that case, how can i make this working.
I was also thinking if i can use the virtual directory as the path to the remote folder, something like http://domain.com/remotefolder but dont know how can i use this approach. Can someone pls share some sample code and the configuration.
I have an .net web form that upload an excel file to my server. I would like for this Excel file to be upload to my SQL server since it need to be process by a sql command and the SQL server cannot seems to be able to access the IIS7 when running the quary i needed. All i want to be able to do is to load this excel file to a folder within the SQL server.Here is my web.config folder path -
Protected Sub btnUpload_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) If FileUpload1.HasFile Then Dim FileName As String = Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName) Dim Extension As String = Path.GetExtension(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName) Dim FolderPath As String = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("FolderPath")
[code]....
when i try to change the path in the web.config it will tell me it cannot use physical path only virtual.
I want to upload files to the web servers from the client machines.
Can i upload a file on a network share folder using file upload control?
I would like to create a share folder on a file server sitting next to the web server. If i upload the file from the network share folder instead of uploading it from the client machine does it make any difference?
Will the file be stored in a temporary location before copying to the final destination? Where will be the file stored in this case of uploading it from share folder?
