Always Ask Before Opening This Type of File - CSV

G

Guest

I have a user on Win2K and IE 6.02 that does not get the prompt to download a CSV file. It automatically loads in the browser, but on mine (Win2K and IE6.02 also), I get the prompt and download the file.

I've checked the Folder Options/FileTypes/CSV/Advanced/Confirm Open... is selected. What is the next step to force the user to choose to open or save the file?

Hi,
Check the settings for XLS files. Make sure that "Browse in same window" is
unchecked.
