If I am posting this in the wrong forum, could someone point me to the right forum.

I am calling an .asp page from a Windows 2003 server over to a Windows 2000 server. My .asp page streams a .pdf file into the browser.
If I run the page off site, it works fine. But once I run it internally within our network from the Windows 2003 server, I get the following message
Code:
File Download - Security Warning
Do you want to open or save this file
This is the what I am doing
Code:
IF I choose OPEN I get the following message:
Windows cannot open this file:
File: DocumentDisplay.asp

To open this file, Windows needs to know what program created it.
Windows can go online to look it up automatically, or you can manually select from a list of programs on your computer.

What do you want to do?
- Use the Web Service to find the appropriate program.
- Select the program from a list

If I choose SAVE,
I am prompted to save the DocumentDisplay.asp file.
I save it to a folder and It saves all the pdf script into an .asp file.

I think it is a setting in IE, but I am a programmer and not a network guy. I can't ask my Network guy as he says he doesn't know.

Could someone help me :)
 
I just realized that there is no adobe acrobat reader installed on the server. I will install the reader and see if this takes care of the problem.
 
Try adding the source server IP address to the Trusted Sites list in IE. Of course, you will need Adobe installed!

Hope This Helps,

Good Luck!
