accessing remote documents

[offa23]

hi all
ive got a winform that displays a list of word documents that are
stored on a remote
server. when he clicks an item on the list, the requested document
should open (as a read only) so he can view it. to access the remote
documents i had to create a web service (for securiry issues) and he
"send" the document to the client machine.
i "read" the remote document with a FileStream object as bytes[] and
send it to the client. can i open the word document in the client
machine from the
bytes array without saving it to the harddisk or i have to save
it and then open it from there. in any case how
can i do it?
thanks

Hello (e-mail address removed),

Everything you need is to start process from stream,
but I'm not sure whether it's possible
