I have an excel spreadsheet on my server. I want user to click on a link, and have it open excel and display the spreadsheet. Whats the best way to go about it?

Can I just make a simple link, and it works? Are there better or alternative ways?

How about using "Response.ContentType" and "Server.Execute", anyone ever try this?

Yes, you can link to it and have it open. Careful though, google will index.

Search for .xls file extensions on google [google.com]
