Office Control does not display word document

[Former Member]

HI all,

I followed the example code to display a word document in the office Control UI, but the display remains blank when I push the button to 'show document'.

I do not have MS Office installed on the server so I have a wordpad named example.doc on the C drive. Can I read the data from wordpad and display it on the Office Control?

Thanks

Jay.

Thanks all,

I have Office 2003 installed on the client but not on the server. The bytes[] array gets loaded with the string '[B@10e770f', but the display stays empty.

Hi Jay,

I need to use this feature as well. Did you get it to work. Can you display and edit a Microsoft Word document from within a browser page. It would be good to know that you have been successful.

Hi Jay,

You need MS Office(MS Word) to be installed on your PC.

Do you have MS Office installed on your PC?

Hi Santhosh C,

Is it necessary that I have a Word document instead of a wordpad on the server?

Hi Jay,

I guess you have to have MS Office installed in your server. The office control might look for some dll files in the server.

Totaly wrong!

You must have MS Office installed on your <b>clinet</b>, because WD control is simply wrapper atop of MS Word Automation objects.
