hi guys i generated my excel report in asp.net..the thing is that i the user will download the file and has the options to save or 2 open it...if he saves it then there is no problem...if opens it than the report will open correctly inside internet explorer but the user cant do anything..i mean he cant save when he changes something...any clue

Show us the code that you have written so that we can trace your problem...

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

i am not having any "coding problems or errors" :S..its just that when the user clicks to download the file he has the option to either open it or save it..if he chooses to save then i will have a good night sleep...if he opens then he want get to save the file..he can manipulate the data and everything on the report but at the end he cant save it...i was surfing the web and got to some articles explaing that when this issue occurs then the IE will add a tool button inside the standard buttons from which i can click to show the Excel toolbar..it worked once by mistake..i dont remember how i did it ... all i want is to know if there is any method clearer then the one i just said or even a clear view about that method in order to show the excel toolbar inside IE...
