'MVC - View word document in iframe window

I have iframe tag in MVC razor file. I am able to load text, pdf files in iframe. here, iframe source is nothing but blob path. here blob is nothing but data from azure blob storage. but I am not able to see word document after rendering is complete , iframe shows blank.

below is iframe window-

<iframe id="frm" src="<blob path>"></iframe>

is iframe compatible with word document? if not, what are other ways we can show word document file in an MVC application.

Hi there you can use Google Document viewer for this like below :

<iframe src="https://docs.google.com/gview?url=http://remote.url.tld/path/to/document.doc&embedded=true"></iframe>

or Office 365 viewer :

<iframe src='https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=http://remote.url.tld/path/to/document.doc' width='1366px' height='623px' frameborder='0'>This is an embedded <a target='_blank' href='http://office.com'>Microsoft Office</a> document, powered by <a target='_blank' href='http://office.com/webapps'>Office Online</a>.</iframe>
