Hi,

I am requesting a file to be downloaded from a website (using Internet Explorer). I get a pop up that asks "Do you want to open or save XXXXX.xls from webpage". Is it possible to use VB to select 'Open' on this window?

When I right click over this window (the above question) I do not get any script behind it though!

Thanks, Bobby
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
Fairy nuff, I can see why it would be useful to point people to on forums, guiding them through doing it the proper way is often impossible.
