ControllerContext.HttpContext.Response.ContentType = "application/ms-excel";
ControllerContext.HttpContext.Response.Write(sw.ToString());
ControllerContext.HttpContext.Response.End();

Is that a way to edit excel file on browser and then save it on server?
View 5 RepliesI can place an Excel file in the root directory, use Browse and view an xlsx, xlsm or any other Excel file and it (sometimes) pops up in a browser window with no option to save or do anything other than view the Excel document (you can type in the cells and it gives you the option to save if there are any changes). I'm trying to find out how to do that exact thing client-side.
We have a server that allows a client to upload an Excel file and we want them to be able to review it only. If there is a way to bypass the Open message box that pops, that would be ideal, but just getting it to display in a separate, small browser window would be just what the doctor ordered. The Excel files are varied so the content is always different and not necessarily formatted the same. That removes the ability to go with named ranges and definitions.
Currently with the code we have, users can press a view button to review the file they uploaded for errors but it opens up the full version of Excel and then throws errors because it tries to force a save to a temp file. Not exactly ideal and very confusing to the user. I don't habve the exact code available to me at the moment, but I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction.
We have a tab delimited file that we are making available for download. The file extension is txt, but the users want it to open automatically in Excel. The previous developer had used the following code:
[code]....
The ContentType is being set to Excel, but that doesn't seem to have any effect. I am guessing the txt file extension is causing it to be picked up by notepad or the like instead. I have tried just renaming it to a xls extension, which works but Excel complains that I am trying to trick it or it might be a corrupted file.
I tried simple code like this using href element. But it tries to open the sheet.xls in the browser window and says it can't find the file. I want the excel file to be opened in excel (not browser).
<a href="file://domainname/vol1/destinationfiles/sheet.xls" >some excel file</a>
We have an application that displays files in a network directory path and wondered if there is a way to open Windows Explorer (or something similar to show/open files or subfolders) from the browser and have it display the files and folders in that path.
View 1 RepliesWe have this great asp.net web application that generates word documents (wordprocessingML) and saves them to the file system on the server. We are running IIS 6.0. I would like to know the best way to allow the user to click a link or something so they can open the document from the browser. I have been experimenting with the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word object, but am getting an error when I try to active the application object. I don't know if using this object is the best approach or if I should be doing something else.

any page that I open in my browser comes up blank.
I don't get any errors, it just comes up blank.
I also noticed that it seems to bypass forms authentication. For example, even though the page I open is blank, it is the actual page name that shows up in the browzer instead of the page that it usually redirects to for the forms authentication.

View 1 RepliesIs it possible to open a PDF always in a browser? That is no Download option will be provided by browser as a user will try to open that pdf file. My application is in ASP.NET (C#).
View 5 RepliesDeveloping a web application in C# which stores files in a tree structure in a server.
A project ( eg: ABC) has many sub folders (eg: ABC_sub1,ABC_Sub2...etc) . Each sub folder will have many types of files. (Eg: .dat,.txt .... etc)
I have stored the project name and the path to the parent folder ( in this case ABC) in a database.
Eg: \sereverNameTestMyProjectABC
What I need to do is when a user selects a given project ( eg; ABC) & clicks the link button component called "browse" to open the folder (\sereverNameTestMyProjectABC) in a new window.
This is the code I thought would work.
protected void LinkButtonFolderBorwse_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string myPath = @HiddenFieldFolderLocation.Value;
System.Diagnostics.Process prc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
prc.StartInfo.FileName = myPath;
prc.Start();
}
HiddenFieldFolderLocation.Value gets the path of the parent folder (\sereverNameTestMyProjectABC).
When I click the link button nothing happens.

View 5 RepliesI have an ASP.NET/C# application that exports some data into an Excel spreadsheet using COM interop at the click of a Button control. When I click the button, Excel is opened with the generated spreadsheet. For what it's worth, here is the button code:
<asp:Button ID="export" Text="Export to spreadsheet" runat="server" OnClick="Export_Workbook" />
This works fine, except when I click the button, close the subsequent spreadsheet, and refresh the page. When the page is refreshed after clicking the button, the call to Export_Workbook() is made again and so the spreadsheet opens again. Firefox, for example, says this when you refresh: "To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier." This is something I want to avoid.
I'm sure there's a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do, I'm just not sure what the best approach is.
Edit
I've accomplished this by doing the following:
protected void Export_Workbook(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Response.Redirect(Request.Url.AbsolutePath, false);
ItemList.Prepare_Workbook();
}
