Help Downloading From Web Page (RESOLVED)

[jayare1948]

Hi. I'm a nube to asp.net. I'm trying to get a file to download
from my web page using Response.AddHeader. The Download
Dialog attempts to download the Web Page 'Download.aspx'
instead of the File I am selecting.

Code:

'Put this is a code behind module or asp.net page
Sub DisplayDownloadDialog(ByVal PathVirtual As String)

Dim strPhysicalPath As String
Dim objFileInfo As System.IO.FileInfo
Try
strPhysicalPath = Server.MapPath(PathVirtual)
'exit if file does not exist
If Not System.IO.File.Exists(strPhysicalPath) _
Then Exit Sub
objFileInfo = New System.IO.FileInfo(strPhysicalPath)
Response.Clear()
'Add Headers to enable dialog display
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" & _
objFileInfo.Name)
Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", objFileInfo.Length.ToString())

Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
Response.WriteFile(objFileInfo.FullName)


Catch
'on exception take no action
'you can implement differently
Finally

Response.End()

End Try
End Sub
'DEMO
'IN YOUR CODE BEHIND PAGE:
'DECLARATION
Protected WithEvents btnDownload As _
System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button

'IN CODE
'ASSUMES MYWORDFILE.DOC EXISTS IN SAME FOLDER
'AS THE ASPX FILE
Private Sub btnDownload_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles btnDownload.Click
DisplayDownloadDialog("MyWordFile.doc")
End Sub
'ON APSX PAGE
<asp:Button id="btnDownload" runat="server" Text="Download a Word File"></asp:Button>

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks
