open csv embed into IE Browser

[eddie wang]

If I click an url like http://myserver/myfile.csv, then I
see csv file embed into IE browser. How can I make it to
ask me if I want to save the file instead of embedding
into IE browser?

Thanks.

Eddie,

In general:
You have to set this option for each file type and the route to Folder
options> File types will be slightly different, depending on your OS:

From Windows Explorer> View> Folder options> File types
OR Tools> Folder options> File types
OR Ctrl Panel> Folder options then File Types. Select [file type]> Advanced.
Put a check by "Confirm open after download."
You should then get the "Open or Save" dialog for each download.

You may also have to try the procedures in:
162059 - Office Documents Open in Internet Explorer:

And, there's an issue affecting CSV files:
318761- Open Button in Dialog Disabled When You Browse or Redirect to .rtf
or .csv Files:

Hope this helps,
