I don't think you have to transfer data from word document (that resides on
the server or back end) to word document (for the client) but you might, I'm
not completely sure.  I'm sure JSP provides a way to grab the file instead,
perhaps.

....What I was working on earlier was generating data (not from another
document) and present it in word in the browser for the client.  What you're
trying to do I believe is different.

Subject: Re: Opening a word document file through a JSP/servlet


But is it possible to read a .doc file
bcoz I tried to read the file thro a BufferedReader
and it reads the file in chars which in effect gets the wrong data
So when the document opens up it has some illegible characters
I tried the same with a txt file and it was able to read the txt perfectly

The solution could be to read the file in terms of bytes and output the same
to
the client so that the file gets sent to the Word Application uninterpreted
by Java

My Servlet is as

  import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class CVUpload extends HttpServlet
{
 public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
    throws ServletException, IOException
 {
     String str="";
     res.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
  //PrintWriter out=res.getWriter();
  BufferedReader in= new BufferedReader(new FileReader("c:/Test.txt"));

  while((str=in.readLine())!=null)
  {
      out.print(str);

   }

  }
}

TIA
Sanjay

For Excel:

<%@ page contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel" %>

So for Word I believe its:

<%@ page contentType="application/msword" %>

But you'll need to do a little more to open an already made word doc.
