Hi all,
I created a html file and have a link to open a words document. Below is my code:
<a href="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\WINWORD.EXE" "G:\TTP\Template\maha-test.doc">View Document</a>
This command manage to open MS Words but not the document. I know something is not correct with the command. Please assist.
Thanks,
Maha

That's odd. For me the browser tries to download the exe, even locally.
Anyhow, you can't have Windows command line as a link. Just link to the doc and it will open in Word by association, within or outside the browser, if the system is set up that way.

Simple <a href="/config.doc">link to word document </a> will also work if the document exist in the same directory otherwise you need to provide a qualified path

Untrue.
If Word is installed and in its file associations "Confirm open on download" is not checked then the link will open Word. Whether Word is integrated with IE or opened as a separate applicationis governed by the setting "Browse in same window".

As joe said earlier also, i think its more depand on the settings, like on my machine it did not asked me any question and open the word doucment right there in browser by integrating the MS-WORD in it.
