Thanks but I could not get Response.WriteFile(path) working. It shows lost of
garbage, not excel sheet. I also have this question: If path has D:\ drive in
it and users run web application in their local computer, does it bring excel
file in D:\ drive in the server, or it will look D:\ driver on the local
computer. If local computer, it will not work for me because users should
read the file in the server's D:\ drive.
