XLS files that I post on the web
I have posted an xls file on our website with the intent of alowing my users
to download the file. I've done this by using a simple hyperlink via frontpage. My problem is that when people open the file (vs. saving it to their local drive) - it opens in a browser - which creates havic when they want to have it. I was hoping that when they opened it from the website , that it would open in excel, rather then the browser. Any sugesstions? Thanks!!!! |

It's a machine setting. You're probably better off saving as a zip, which
they basically have to download. ************ Anne Troy VBA Project Manager www.OfficeArticles.com "Pat Stewart" <Pat wrote in message ...
