I am trying to open crystal report in ms-word but without saving it.

My code is working fine but it's asking to save the file. Here is my code

CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = rptDoc;<br />
                ReportDocument crystalReport = new ReportDocument(); <br />
                crystalReport.Load(Server.MapPath(ReportName)); <br />
                crystalReport.SetDataSource(dt); <br />
                CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = crystalReport;    crystalReport.ExportToHttpResponse(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportFormatType.WordForWindows, Response, true, "");

The third parameter of the ExportToHttpResponse is called asAttachment. The documentation says:

ReportDocument.ExportToHttpResponse Method[^]

Indicates whether or not the report will be exported as an attachment of the response.

If you pass true, the user will be asked to save the file. If you pass false, the file will usually be opened without saving.

C#

crystalReport.ExportToHttpResponse(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportFormatType.WordForWindows, Response, false, "");
