You're on the right track, then... my example is intended to demonstrate the concept only. It sounds like you already understand the concept.

In fact this is the way any application would do it, including WinSCP. It downloads the file to a temp folder, opens it with the appropriate editor, saves it, and then uploads it back to the source.

All that's left for you to do now is find an editor for ASP.NET that can work with your file type. That task is beyond the scope of this forum, of course, but you've already got a good head start on the job.

Hi, thanks for the repply

I forgot to mention that its an asp.net application, so I need to open the file directly from a local folder from within asp.net application. All examples that I saw in web are for download file not to open it.

Thanks
Best regards

Hello,

Is it possible to implement code using .net assembly, to do same action like in the FTP Client to EDIT a remote file?

I need to implement in my application a connection to a remote server, select a file, edit it and, when finished, upload it back to the remote server. That's exactly what is donne in the "Edit With" option of the WinSCP Client Application.

Thanks in advance.
Best regards
