Excel files online: DOWNLOAD only (no open allowed in browser)? 1

[VBAjedi]

Hi all!

I have some Excel 97 files that contain large amounts of VBA coding. I want to make these available on a website.

However, if you click on the file's link, and choose "Open" instead of "Dowload", the file opens but not all the code executes correctly (it's supposed to create and rename files).

Can I somehow make it so that opening the file from within the browser is not an option? I want my users to dowload the file to their PC and open it from there.

Thanks for sharing any insight you have!

Try putting the files into a ZIP file and then post them.

Good idea, Mike! Have a star for that. It does add another step of complexity that my users are definitely going to squawk about, but that's just the way it will have to be.
