In your ASP.NET MVC application, please add the required assemblies in order to use DocIO. Refer here for assemblies required.
Save the document
The following code example illustrates how to save the Word document in ASP.NET MVC.
//Creates an empty Word document instance
WordDocument document = new WordDocument();
//Adds new section to the document
IWSection section = document.AddSection();
//Adds new paragraph to the section
IWParagraph paragraph = section.AddParagraph();
//Appends the text to the created paragraph
paragraph.AppendText("AdventureWorks Cycles, the fictitious company on which the AdventureWorks sample databases are based, is a large, multinational manufacturing company.");
//Export the document after saving
return document.ExportAsActionResult("Sample.docx", FormatType.Docx, HttpContext.ApplicationInstance.Response, HttpContentDisposition.Attachment);'Creates an empty Word document instance
Dim document As New WordDocument()
'Adds new section to the document
Dim section As IWSection = document.AddSection()
'Adds new paragraph to the section
Dim paragraph As IWParagraph = section.AddParagraph()
'Appends the text to the created paragraph
paragraph.AppendText("AdventureWorks Cycles, the fictitious company on which the AdventureWorks sample databases are based, is a large, multinational manufacturing company.")
'Export the document after saving
Return document.ExportAsActionResult("Sample.docx", FormatType.Docx, HttpContext.ApplicationInstance.Response, HttpContentDisposition.Attachment)Following extension class will help you to download the Word document.
