# Preview MS Word, Excel, Powerpoint document in browser

I am developing an [application](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12824/calculator-application-in-android) using [ASP.Net MVC](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/155798/what-is-caching-in-asp-dot-net-mvc) 4 in which I have to open/[preview](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/429/i-want-to-get-full-path-of-lt-asp-fileupload-gt-and-then-client-can-click-the-preview-button-to-see-what-file-he-here-has-uploaded) the [Ms Word](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/96571/what-are-the-best-ways-to-use-ms-word), Excel, [Powerpoint](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/136404/how-to-make-a-powerpoint-presentation-attractive) [document](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/328642/what-to-consider-while-choosing-a-software-documentation-tool) in the [browser](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/155254/which-is-the-best-internet-browser) ([Google](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/43833/google-lighthouse-and-how-is-it-changing-the-way-we-development-and-design-websites) Chrome, Mozilla).
