Open Exel file in the browser or in Excel

Post by dyconsulting »

To open Excel file in the browser do this:

Code: Select all

<a href="File.xls" target="_blank">
To open it inside MS Ecxel:
1. go to my computer
2. go to tools
3. go to folder options
4. go to file types
5. scroll down to doc file or any file you want to open this way
6. click on advance and disable
7. confirm open after download
