Then you have to right click. We are not allowed to have Netscape at work so I cannot give you specifics.

>>All bets are off for Netscape Browsers. For I.E., when the user left clicks his/her mouse on the highlighted link, a File Download form will appear. It will give the option to open the file or save it. If the user opens it, it will appear in the users browser. If Save is selected the user has the option to save the file and is allowed to choose the directory. From there the user would have to use the Explorer to double click on it to open the file for viewing or use a text editor.

>>>I will play around with this. So simple, so much fun. Will the file be opened in an editor like notepad? I don't want it to open I just want it saved. I want the user to save it to a folder on their machine. That is important and I am sorry I did not make that clear.

>>>>>Hi UTers,

>>>>>I have a simple server in my office. I have 10 asp pages that my customers can hit on my server. 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.
