Problem with creating docx file

Mukund Thakker asked:

Open original thread
I need to create docx file from the provided text.
Here is the code snippet,

XML
<asp:TextBox ID="txtDescription" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine" Height="100"
            Width="280"></asp:TextBox>
        <asp:LinkButton ID="lb_Download" runat="server" Text="Download file" OnClick="lb_Download_Click"></asp:LinkButton>


C#
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (!IsPostBack)
        {
            txtDescription.Text = "lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.";
        }
    }
    protected void lb_Download_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string strContents = null;
        strContents = txtDescription.Text;

        string attachment = "attachment; filename=test.docx";
        Response.ClearContent();
        Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document";
        Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", attachment);
        Response.Write(strContents);
        Response.End();
    }



When I open this created test.docx file, it gives me error.
Any solution in the Content Type?

When answering a question please:
  1. Read the question carefully.
  2. Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar.
  3. If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or edit the question and fix the problem. Insults are not welcome.
  4. Don't tell someone to read the manual. Chances are they have and don't get it. Provide an answer or move on to the next question.
