Hi.

I have a little script that streams files to users if they click on a link using the Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Stream").

Is it possible via this (or any other) to stream a file directly to the user and be able to specify the name of the file.

Example:

I have a folder off the root of a website called 'files' it contains 2 files called:
00001.doc
00002.doc

Now if a user clicks a download link for 00001.doc is there a way where instead of the prompt coming up for them to save 00001.doc locally it actually prompts and I can supply the filename. So despite download 0001.doc it would default the filename to whatever I supply.

Hope that makes sense :p

Thanks.
