To open a PowerPoint file, I used the code:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("myFile.pptx");
It works but I lost the original aspx page. How to solve this problem? Thanks.

What? That would open the PPT file on the server and you have this flagged asp.net. Everything seems wrong about this.

Totally puzzling post. Maybe OP has a plugin for on-page support of PPTX... but then it would not be a question for developer's forum...

Huh? Lost what, where? If you need help, you need to really explain your problem, instead of throwing puzzles.

Thanks for your responses. In my ASP.Net project, I opened a page (myPage.aspx). There is a click button to fire an event to open PPTX file. When the PPTX file got open, the original opened aspx on the browser was gone. Hopefully, the question has got clearly explained.

No. The code you are using will open the file on the server, right? Not on the client. Use Response.Redirect or some other form of the Response Object.

I used an alternative way to solve the problem posted. My code is below:

C#

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("myfile.pptx"); 
RegisterStartupScript("xxx", "window.open('myPage.aspx');");

Thanks.

Changed to:
ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "pop", pageURL, true);
