It is browser dependant. But what "formula or code" have you used?

[no name] 10-May-12 8:37am

if(e.CommandName.Equals("view")) { try { int index = System.Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument); Label l1 = (Label)GridView1.Rows[index].FindControl("Label1"); Label title = (Label)GridView1.Rows[index].FindControl("Label3"); Panel1.Visible = true; frmWord.Attributes["src"] = l1.Text; } }

Mitesh, some browser doesn't support opening file without saving into clients machine so, Better to convert your file into pdf before downloading.

AshishChaudha 10-May-12 8:37am

it always asks your file to save...chrome does not support it..

so what code tht convert doc,excel,ppt to pdf

Zoltán Zörgő 10-May-12 9:25am

In Chrome you can view PDF only because there is a PDF viewer built in. If you have Office2010, you could use automation do convert files to pdf, or a pdf printer... but this is not for high load. There are enterprise level tools for that, but they are expensive.
By the way: do you want to make your solution cross-browser or for a specific one?
