In my web application multiple reports are generated and stored on server when user clicks on a button. I need to store these reports on client machine. I am not able to figure out a way do implement this feature. Any help will be appriciated...Thanks in advance...

The user will need to view/save or download the reports after they are generated. You can't just save a file to a client machine via the browser.

Yep

Peter is correct, due to security reasons/permission issues, we cannot save a file directly to client's machine. However, options like "Export To Excel" etc can be provided to user wherein he can download the reports.

Fortune favours the brave, so don't regret on missed oppurtunities.

Adding to Mike and Peters posts, you will need to write your data back to the HTTP Stream and give it a type of application/vnd.ms-excel or application/vnd.ms-word. hth.
