Erro in Export c#.net page to Document

Sathish

17y4.7k.NET

HiI am using the following code in C#.net to export a page of contents to MS-Word document.

The file is exported well. But the tables and cell alignments are not coming in an aligned manner.

And also while opening the saved MSWord file it is producing an error that it is missing the stylesheet.css (it is the css file which I am using and is located in my Bin folder only).

So can I have any solution for both the queries?

string attachment = "attachment; filename="MyFile.doc";

Response.ClearContent();

Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", attachment);

Response.ContentType = "application/msword";

StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();

HtmlTextWriter htw = new HtmlTextWriter(sw);

this.RenderControl(htw);

Response.Write(sw.ToString());

Response.End();

Thanks in Advance

Copy the styles locally on your aspx page in the header section. Instead of having link of css file on your page. This is will be fine if the contents of the css file are of not big size

I have tried the code...but no difference...

There error while opening the exported document is

missing file:Temporary internet files\Content.IE5\...\Stylesheet.css.

So can say any way to apply the stylesheet while exporting.

Thanks in advance.

try this

HttpWebRequest webRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
HttpWebResponse webResponse = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
Stream stream = webResponse.GetResponseStream();

StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(stream, Encoding.UTF8))
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder(streamReader.ReadToEnd().Trim());

streamReader.Close();
webResponse.Close();
webRequest.Abort();

Response.Clear();
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=test.doc");
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-word";

Response.BinaryWrite(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetPreamble());

Response.Write(sb.ToString());

//Response.End();
Response.Flush();
HttpContext.Current.ApplicationInstance.CompleteRequest();
