Download a file automatically using ASP

[cvasquez]

I want to be able to allow my customers to download a text (*.txt) document onto their PC using the same scheme

http://wwww.download.com

is using.

If the download for some strange reasons fails then I will allow you to click on a link for a manual download.

I understand that I the in you click on the text document Internet Explorer will show it on it's own screen but I don't want this effect. I want to use a script that could be for any file extension not just txt.

I can also let them know to right click and do a save target as but this won't work...and I don't want to depend on customers actions.

Any of your help will be mostly appreciated.
