[thelist] Forcing a file download

[George Palframan]

hello all,
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to force a 'save as' dialogue box when
a file is called upon or the server decides to serve it up?
I am currently investigating the response.AddHeader method in ASP but this
does not seem to be working.

here's the code:

response.AddHeader "content-disposition","attachment; filename=labels.dat"
response.Redirect  "labels/" & file_name



I am using IIS 4.0, will this have any imapct??

thanks,
George.
