Correction to Code - WordML Document not showing up correctly

M

Meena Bhashyam

Hi,
Please disregard previous code. This is the actual code:

Dim xmlDoc As New XmlDocument
xmlDoc.Load("D:\VisualStudioProjects\TestXML\TestXML\bin\HelloWorld.xml.doc")
Response.ContentType = "application/word"
Response.Write(xmlDoc.OuterXml)

In response, my browser tries to open up a asp.net server page. See below
for contents. Can anyone tell me what I am doing incorrect?

Thanks,
Meena

I think you need
Response.ContentType = "application/msword"
instead of
Response.ContentType = "application/word"
See

Actually, there were a couple of things. You were correct, basically the
content type had to be
set to "application/msword", and I also had to set the correct mime type on
IIS.
In addition, I had to add
Response.Flush()
Response.End()
to stop the html from getting inserted. This solved my problem.

Thank you!
