I'm designing a program for one worker in my department. This program recieves a recordset and must and then translates this information into three files types. That much I have figured out, but my problem arises when trying to save. I have to be able to have a function that allows the user to select the directory to save the files too. I have had no luck searching the net and the ASP forum here has been less than helpful. Even if someone just told me I couldn't do it at all I would be greatful and could stop wasting my time.

This program is running from Internet Explorer so scripting(ie. WSCRIPT, CSCRIPT) is not really an option.

Thanks in advance for all the help.
 
I presume that you know how to save a file through an ASP page. Once you can do that your 99% of the way. All you need to do now is provide the user with an input box to input the desired path. Now collect the user defined path and use it instead of the static path you may be using.

however, the user defined directory must be viewable by IIS........its unlikely MyDocs will be enabled so you can't save to that.
