Pass the Save method a file path, for example:

WordTemplate wt = new WordTemplate();
wt.Process();
wt.Save(@"c:\Documents\File.doc");

Dim wt As New WordTemplate()
wt.Process()
wt.Save("c:\Documents\File.doc")

...

Pass the Save method a System.IO.FileStream object, for example:

using System.IO; // For FileStream object
WordTemplate wt = new WordTemplate();
wt.Process();
using(FileStream fstream = new FileStream(@"c:\Documents\File.doc",
		FileMode.Create))
{
	wt.Save(fstream);
	fstream.Close();
}

Imports System.IO ' For FileStream object
Dim wt As New WordTemplate()
wt.Process()
Dim fstream As new FileStream("c:\Documents\File.doc",
		FileMode.Create)
Try
	wt.Save(fstream)
	fstream.Close()
Finally
	If Not fstream Is Nothing Then
		fstream.Dispose()
	End If
End Try

When you pass an HttpResponse object to Save, WordWriter will stream the generated Word file to the client. The browser will display a File Download dialog asking the user to open or save the file. The method's second parameter specifies a file name to display in the File Download dialog. If the method's third parameter - OpenInBrowser - is True and the user chooses to open the Word file, the file will open in the browser window.

wt.Save(Page.Response, "StringVarOutput.doc", true);

wt.Save(Page.Response, "StringVarOutput.doc", True)

When you pass an HttpResponse object to Save, WordWriter will stream the generated Word file to the client. The browser will display a File Download dialog asking the user to open or save the file. The method's second parameter specifies a file name to display in the File Download dialog. If the method's third parameter - OpenInBrowser - is False and the user chooses to open the Word file, the file will open in the default application for .doc or .docx files (such as Microsoft Word, StarOffice, or OpenOffice.org).

bool bOpenInBrowser = false;
wt.Save(Page.Response, "StringVarOutput.doc", bOpenInBrowser);

Dim bOpenInBrowser As Boolean = False
wt.Save(Page.Response, "StringVarOutput.doc", bOpenInBrowser)

1. Set the response's content-type header to "application/vnd.ms-word":

   Code Block
   c# c# title C# c#
   Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-word";

   Code Block
   vb.net vb.net title VB.NET vb.net
   Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-word"}}

2. Set the response's content-disposition to "attachment":

   Code Block
   c# c# title C# c#
   Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=/"WordWriter.doc/"");

   Code Block
   vb.net vb.net title VB.NET vb.net
   Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition",\_ "attachment;filename=""WordWriter.doc""")

3. Pass the Save method Response.Stream as a parameter:

   Code Block
   c# c# title C# c#
   wt.Save(Response.OutputStream);

   Code Block
   vb.net vb.net title VB.NET vb.net
   wt.Save(Response.OutputStream)

Document doc WordApplication.Open(WordTemplate template);

Example

WordTemplate wTempl = new WordTemplate();
wTempl.Process();

WordApplication wApp = new WordApplication();
Document doc = wApp.Open(wTempl);

Dim wTempl As New WordTemplate
wTempl.Process()

Dim wApp As New WordApplication
Dim doc As Document = wApp.Open(wTempl)
