Open or Save a file from .net 2005 treeview control

Hi,

I am trying to list some files from server using .net 2005 treeview
control, which I could successfully do it. Also, I would like to open
the Open/Save dialog box when user clicks on a file name from the list.
How can I do that? If I could open the file even with out the dialog
box, that would work. For example, when user clicks on a PDF file, then
it should open in PDF reader.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

The way files are displayed (or not) on the client is set by the
(client-side) user, and only him. You cannot change that from the
server. The only thing you can do is serve correct MIME types, and the
browser will then do what it has been configured for.

HTH,
Laurent

Now I need to save the state of the expanded treeview so that I can apply the same expanded state to the updated treeview. is there something i can do?

What's the best way to have a modal dialog that will only allow the selection of a FOLDER, rather than a file? Is there a property of the openFileDialog I'm missing, or is there another control altogether? I was thinking of doing it from a treeView, but It seems like there ought to be a control for this sort of thing! -D

Hi Experts: I'm using ASP.NET 2.0. I'm using a TreeView control with a design-time configured XmlDataSource (an XML file). I use the TreeView control as a "message board" with each node representing a message. I noticed that the TreeView loads alright from the XML file but did not save anything. I call the TreeView.Save() for each new node added into the TreeView. What I'm missing here? Thanks in advance!

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,...
