Thanks for reply...I tried this solution. Its works perfectly.!!!!

If you want to use linkbutton to download the file, please try the following method.

<ItemTemplate>
     <asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" CommandArgument='<&#37;# Bind("FilePath") %>' CommandName="Select" runat="server">Print</asp:LinkButton>
</ItemTemplate>

Then you can send the bindary stream based of the CommandName property and CommandArgument property at event RowCommand.

    protected void dvTest_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.CommandName == "Select")
        {
            string path = e.CommandArgument;
            Response.Clear();
            Response.ContentType = "application/ms-word";
            Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=test.doc");
            Response.TransmitFile(path);
            Response.End();
        }
    }

Hello rnjnagu,

Thanks for posting your solution, I am sure it will help others in the future.

I have edited your above post to include CODE tags, which makes it slightly easier to read
