    You know that when you try to download something, IE asks
    you if you want to download it or open it on your RAM.
    So, I was wandering how can I open a file for my viewing
    on the server's RAM.
    With code of course.

    This isn't actually the case. IE asks you if you'd like to run it from it's current location, which is misleading. What happens is IE downloads the file to your temporary internet files folder (or windows temp folder) and runs it from there. It doesn't actually run it from RAM either on the server or your machine. You can simulate this with the SHELL command of VB (I know nothing of this command though).
