Opening files on a server

Hi,

I have developed a file directory to show files on one of our servers, but am experiencing problems when it comes to opening and saving files. I would like it so that when a user opens a file, it allows them to edit the document before closing it. The document type can be anything from Word to pdf.

Currently I am using the following code:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.         Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + e.CommandName);
  2. Response.WriteFile(filename);
  3. Response.Flush();
  4. Response.Close();
This opens the file on the local machine, not as an instance of the file on the server. I would be grateful if somebody can help me!!

Thanks
Jon
