Word and Excel documents errors

Featured Replies

Hi Folks,

Im am using FM 5.0 a database server and web server (internal web server of FM) I have some static documents (word and execl documents) in the web server, When I click the link of the documents I receive the document

like a ascii document (I receive contents of the file) . Why I could not receive the file like a word document. I think FM web server does not know what the word document so it send me all the contents of document.

What should I do,

Any help is welcome B)-)

Regards,

Yalcin

Hi, Yalcin! I am interested in hearing a good answer for this, too, but it is not just FileMaker. In the mean time, I was able to compress/stuff/zip the documents and make those available for download instead of the raw files. Browsers will usually auto-decompress these for web users, anyway, so it is almost the same thing. It's just a little extra work to re-compress after edits/changes. Let's hope someone can tell us how to do it w/raw files...
