I am trying to provide a service on my web site that will allow visitors to upload their resume to my website. Resumes uploaded will be Word (.doc) format. Our website is hosted on IIS 6.0 and is HTML with ASP.

I would like to be able have the server accept the resume .doc file and display it to the visitors using a standard browser without ANY conversions on the visitors part prior to uploading and/or viewing it on our website. The resume will appear to be imbeded within a webpage with the proper formattting. I know our ASP script will have to convert the .doc file into formatted HTML before people can view it using a standard browser.

Can someone point me to the proper direction to accomplish this?

The only website that I know that currently does this is Monster.com. When you upload your resume in ".doc" format, Monster.com instantly displays it within an embedded webpage with the proper formatting without having to download or perform file conversions.

Any direction anyone can give would be appreciated.
