Response.writefile (filename) ?? problem with filesize

[Guest]

Hi,

I am using Response.writefile to write a file into clients browser. It works
fine with files upto 60MB. When I come across a file size bigger than that,
it break with error saying page can not be displayed.

Any clue?

Did you try a simple google search?

with the second link being pretty useful:

This method is completely undocumented in the .NET Framwork SDK yet it is the best method for tranmitting files. I
don't know why this hasn't been in cluded in the documentation.

I've read numerous posts about problems like this but none suggested using this method.
