That doesn't necessarily guarantee that the whole file was downloded though
does it? Also I hsould have pointed out that the file is not being access
directly. I have and ASP.NET page that reades and attcahes the file to the
response. Here's what I'm doing.
response.contenttype = "application/pdf"
header = "attachment;filename=" & filename
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition",header)
Response.WriteFile(FileName, StartPos, FileSize)
Anyway to know that the download has been interrupted?

One crude way that comes to mind is using the IIS log or a custom app log:
Capture the buyer's host IP address and then search the log for a GET on
the that address, date, document name and a status code of 200.
2004-04-08 23:33:08 W3SVC1 SERVER5 233.81.31.14 GET
/pulbicdocs/MyDoc.pdf - 80 - 154.199.45.213 Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.1) -
mycompany.com 200 0 64
I'm sure there are more elegant ways to accomplish this task but that will
probably work.

news:OQ**************@TK2MSFTNGP11.phx.gbl... Is there any way to determine that a user received a downloaded file.
I'm developing a service that sells documents (like PDF books) and I need to
have a way to determine if the buyer actually got the document. Is
there any way to determine is the client received the full download?
