Your code is running on the server. You are exporting the report to a file on the server.

If you want the Excel file to be saved on the client, then you have to write the file to the Response. The user will then be able to choose where to save it.

Rather than using ExportToDisk, use the ExportToHttpResponse method[^]:

C#

if (_dt.Rows.Count > 0)
{
    FileName = FileName + ".xls";
    
    rep_doc.Load(FilePath);
    rep_doc.Refresh();
    rep_doc.SetDataSource(_dt);
    rep_doc.SetParameterValue("FromDate", txtFromDate.Text.Trim());
    rep_doc.SetParameterValue("ToDate", txtToDate.Text.Trim());
    
    rep_doc.ExportToHttpResponse(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportFormatType.Excel, Response, true, FileName);
}
