You can't create a file on the clients machine.
You would need to create it on the server then have them download it to their machine.

and then delete it off the sever either right then or in 30 days. if that applies.

thanx

but how it can happen without asking about downloading from the client

It can't, the client has to accept the file download first.

You can't forcibly download a file to the client. If that were possible, then it would also mean that files containing viruses could be forced onto your machine. It's just a security violation.

Would you want someone forcing a file download to your machine, if you didn't know what the file was or what it contained?

I didn't think so.

I don't know some of the internet toolbars are pretty slick about getting on your system...... gotta have high security in the browser or they hop right on ie and screw up your entire system practicly. Damn Shell virus crap.
