Hi Gerald,

The second suggestion sounds like the one I need. I will play with it on Tuesday. I will keep you posted. Thank you.

Neil

>>Than you so much. I will play with this on Tuesday morning. One last thing. Will the user be prompted with a "save to" dialog?

I would like my customers to hit a link on a page so that they can download a file that I put on my c: drive. Right after the customer logs in, I load the file c:\inetpub\wwwroot\babydell\YourFile.txt on my hard drive. I would like the customer to be able to hit a link and download that file. Do I need to set up FPT on my server? If so please provide me with tech references. I am running 2000 server with IIS. Or... is there an easier way to do this.
