opening a word doc in word not browser

I have been banging my head trying to find a way either in classic asp
or asp dot net to get a word document to open in word, and not use the
browser. I have tried (in classic asp):

Response.Conten tType = "applicatio n/ms-word"
Response.AddHea der "Content-Disposition", "attachment ;
filename='\\Ser ver\SomeDirecto ry\SomeDoc.doc' "

too no avail. The documents are on a network drive. Do I have to
create a virtual drive in IIS and refer to that in order to open docs
on a network share? My users won't like the browser based doc so I am
looking for something that can call word like the shellExecute funtion
in vb.

Any help is appreciated.

I am hoping someone can tell me how, or point me in the right direction for the following problem. I need to have word open a specified file, .mht, as a plug-in inside of IE so that I can edit this file within the word plugin within IE. I am not even sure how I can get this to work with a .doc file. I appreciate any help you can give......Thanks, Jason

Hi, Being fairly new to .NET I am looking for a way to call MS Word from an event on a webform, and after the user is finished save that created document to an SQL Server database. Has anyone done this? Does it seem possible? I followed the instructions from a sample on the Microsoft knowledge base but it only seems to work when creating a VB.NET Windows .EXE, not an VB.NET ASP app.

We have tried everything up to this point, setting timeout in IIS, refresh scripts, etc, until we realized it has something to to do with the Word document. I have spent a LOT of time trying to figure this out, or find an answer online. I...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
