Question

I have a drop down list name is dropdoiwn1 and inside the dropdown1 I have 3 list items names "doc","excel","csv". I have bound drop down list very well.

I want that when I click on the Excel item, the Excel file should open. I know how to convert this into excel but I want to learn the correct way to do this. Every button should be a link and when I choose any item then it should be a button and open excel.

~~Any help~~ is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

look really i don't understand well but i will try to help:
if you need to open the items of the dropdown as link button inorder to to fire a special event on click .. but i have another idea about that why you dont think about dropdown events like OnSelectedIndexChanged so when you select new item from dropdown this event will fire so put you code inside this event(to code that export to excell) try it

This is not a simple task, because if already your csv, excel, doc are created we can show them directly with the dropdown click event. But If you want to generate these files based on the event selection it is not at all a good approach. If you want to create csv, excel, doc files there are so many articles to create this type of files.

go for google

If any idea behind your program, please elaborate it in your question.

Thanks
