Open / View PDF in brower instead of Download in Sharepoint

Dear All,
if you are facing an issue in PDF to download when you click on it just follow the steps then its will open in to client applciation

The solution is:

1) go to Central Administration

2) Choose Manage Web Application

3) Select Web Application that has the document library with the PDF files

4) Click on General Settings -> General Settings in the top ribbon that appears when you selected the web application

5) Scroll down until you see Browser File Handling and choose Permissive instead of Strict.  and click OK.

Now the PDF files will open in the browser and will not require the user to download them first and manually open.

SharePoint calculated column and hyperlink or Link (no workflows or scripts needed)

This is a process how you make the Link column in your sharepoint link original url Create a calculated column which concatenate the url text with an existing column value. This seems to be an easy task, except one thing: SharePoint doest not render hyperlink in calculated column by default. For example, I have a list with 2 columns: Search term and Google Search. Google Search is a calculated column with this formula Now, this is what I will get by default: There are a few ways to fix this problem. Usually people will recommend you to create a Hyperlink column instead and create a workflow to update the Hyperlink value ( http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/ar/sharepoint2010customization/thread/32d32e47-3256-4806-8775-c250b6243038 ) . Or, you can place a script on the page that loop through the HTML nodes and replace the unfriendly html tags with a hyperlink as described here http://practicalsharepoint.blogspot.com/2011/10/dynamic-hyperlinks-in-calculated.html ...
