Opening a document on the fly in chrome or ie and upload

Question

How can I achieve this in ASP.Net MVC? I would click on link to document and it will open in ie or chrome and add content to it and when we save it gets downloaded to specific location. Is this possible?

Document formats are not natively supported by web browsers or native ASP classes. You can try one of the following solutions: 1. Use Microsoft Active X objects and this will work on IE only (will not work on other browsers) see the following link: https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/404688/Word-Excel-ActiveX-Controls-in-ASP-NET 2. Use LEADTOOLS SDK which has the ability to load documents in a web-page see the following link: https://www.leadtools.com/help/leadtools/v19m/dh/to/doxui-topics-documentviewer-using.html Also you can check the online web demo here: https://demo.leadtools.com/JavaScript/DocumentViewer/
