Force file to dowload

[Albano Alves]

Hi!

How can I force the file download, for example a .doc?
I don't want to open with IE.

Thanks.

'WebClient.DownloadFile' (requires a reference to "System.Web.dll").

Albano,

There is not much to give as example with this.
When the reference is set, than does this the Job

dim wb as new webclient
wb.downloadfile("Url","c"\myfile.jpg")

I hope this helps?
