How can I use GOOGLE DOCS in my project which I am doing using asp.net with C# as code behind.

Basically I need to display some pdf, doc,dox,excel documents in a read only form in the browser.

Google docs has an API for that.

The Google Documents List Data API allows client applications to programmatically access and manipulate user data stored with Google Documents.

Check it's documentation, it has examples and everything you would need to develop something based on google docs.
