If I use an html link to open a word document word will open this file on
the server with the clients word, as the client has a file association setup
for .doc to utilize word. I need to replicate this for a file type that does
not have a file association for word EX: getting test.txt to open with word
instead of notepad on the clients PC. Is there a way I can specify what
application to use to open the file I pass it? Thanks again for your
help.........Jason

client PC and have the filename specified as a variable. I have been
working
on this and can't find any clear documentation that gives me what I need.
Thanks, Jason
