Hi group

Suppose I've got a pdf or xls file in an image field in a SQL database. Now
I fetch it to a memory stream and I want to open it with the default handler
for this kind of files (if any installed) on user workstation. How do I do
that ?

Thanks,
Igor
 
save it to a file (a temporary file?)
and create a new Process using ProcessStartInfo with ShellExecute = true and
the saved file as the "main executable"
