Read File & Display the file online in ASP.NET

Hello All,

I would like to read a file stored in ms-access & display it by opening the application.

For eg., i have stored some details in ms-word format in Ms-Access. When the end user wants to view the file, I would like to read the file from ms-access & display it in ms-word. It should be stored temporarily. Once the enduser closes the application without saving the temporarily stored infomation should be deleted?

Can this be acheived in ASP.NET.

Pls help me out.

Thanks.

Are you storing the word document in a binary memo field in access?

If so, look into file streams. You can read a stream into a database field and back to disk again.

You can find the answer somewhere in here... http://www.computerhelp.forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=69196&highlight=byte

Even though my code uses jpg files you can do this for any binary file
