If I understand you correctly.
If your uploading MS Excel docs.. People you click on your link need to have your version or higher installed on their system.
When they click on the link. Their MS Excel opens and launches the spreadsheet

Depending on the version of excel your using, you could just save as web page and publish from Front Page. THis would be the easiest way. You don't want to restrict the number of people who can access you prices. Remember, not everyone has excel on their computer.

I know that Excel 2000 will let you "Save as Web Page..." without having to go thru FrontPage. Just a thought... https://forums.windrivers.com/

Then just copy the file to your web server and put up a link that points to it. Then instruct people to right click and save target to the hard drive. If they havbe excel, IE should bring it up without a problem.

If you zip the file it will not automatically launch Excel, plus it will download faster (important to those of us still using analog modems).Quote:
