I am creating an excel report in vb.net using the office interop. When the report is completed I am saving the excel file on the C drive. The users have asked to save file anywhere they want not just the c drive. Can someone give me some code to popup an opend file dialog in asp.net?
I want the dialog to popup in a saveAs in ASP.NET. I know how to do it in win forms, but I am creating an excel report in asp.net and calling the worksheet objects SaveAs property that excepts a fileName. So right now I just hardcode a file name in there. The users want to choose a file location
I think what you want is actually rather simple.
You can't save a file to the user's computer due to security restrictions (would you want a website saving a file to your computer?)
What you need to do is:
Doing this the user can right-click and save the file to wherever they want on their computer.
You can clean up these files on whatever schedule you would like.
Assuming you are actually talking about a desktop, winforms app then you can use the built in FileSaveDialog.
Official documentation is here:
but there are tons of tutorials explaining it out there:
You can server files with the Open / Save dialog by using Response.TransmitFile()
.
The user is then presented with a save as dialog where they can choose the filename and the location on their computer.
You normally do this inside a HttpHandler
. A simple one is described here:
