I have link to open PDF file in HTML page displayed in WebControl / WebView control. When I click the link it opens dialog box to save file. How I can I open it in PDF viewer ? Also I want to open excel / word docs etc in it's respective applications instead of dialog box to save file.

How can I do this ?

Hi,

In order to open PDF file, you will need Adobe Reader plugin. See here for more details:

You won't be able to open Word/Excel docs in EO.WebBrowser. EO.WebBrowser is based on Google Chrome's source code. Google Chrome browser won't open Word/Excel docs either.

Thanks!
