Name | Type | Description |

String | The path to a document to open. |
#Remarks
Call this Open method to open a document from the server’s file system. When you open a document for the first time, the control loads it to the server’s memory and generates a DocumentId from the pathToDocument parameter value.
If the document is already open, the method activates the document stored in the server’s memory.
string pathToDocument = Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/Documents/doc.rtf");
ASPxRichEdit1.Open(pathToDocument);
Specify the WorkDirectory property to enable the Open and Save As UI commands. Users cannot access the file system outside the specified directory.
