file prompts: open or save?
In winXP:
Open Windows explorer Tools|Folder Options|File Types tab Scroll down to XLS Click the Advanced button Check "Confirm after download" You may want to do the same thing with all the excel files (.xla, .xlsm, ..xlsb...) as well as your other favorite extensions (.doc???). tkacer wrote: when downloading an Excel file from the Web, how do I get Excel to prompt me to open or save the file BEFORE it opens? -- Dave Peterson |
