How to download a file created in the server's memory to the client without saving it?

How to download a file created in the server's memory to the client without saving it (ASP.NET)?

I've generated an Excel file on server using NetOffice. BUT now, I am not able to download it to the client. I don't want to save a copy of this file on the server.

Can we send the file object created in the memory using Streams?

Indeed you can. Just pass to Response.OutputStream of your HTTP request. Something like this should work (where yourStream is a stream from your in memory excel doc):

    Response.Clear();
    Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet";
    Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=myfile.xlsx");
    yourStream.WriteTo(Response.OutputStream);
    Response.Flush();
