  How to open a .DOC file in MS-Word thru a link  sherbir at 12:48 on Tuesday, August 03, 2004
 

I have an application that supports uploading and downloading of .DOC files.

Everything works fine.

My problem is the downloading part.

When I click a link, eg..<a href="/path/to/the/.doc/file">, the file opens succesfully...but in the browser and not MS-Word.

I want MS-Word application to open and then that file to be called in MS-Word.

I do not want to display the file in the browser.

Any suggessions ?

Please Help.

Thanx alot
