link to a .dot
a very simple question:
is it easily possible, to make a link to a .dot-file? .docs are no problem, same with .xls, .ppt, ..., but with the .dot-documents it shows the 'code' in the browser.
it's only in the intranet, so userconfiguration is no problem (they all have ms-word).
thanks for your help!

Hi,
There might be an ActiveX control to allow you to do it. See MS Online Workshop site.

do you have an URL?
so, it's not possible with a simple <a href...> ?

Do you run apache ?
The Content-Type/MIME Type is wrong.
It should be something like application/msword.
Look into /etc/apache/mime.types (or where ever that file is on your server)
and check if it contains
application/msword doc dot
If you don't run unix I can help you ...

well, thanks anti, i tried that, but it's not going/running/orwhatever.
my config:
apache-server, running with winNT.
my mime.types-file (part of it):
application/msword doc dot
what else do you need? in my preferences in netscape, dot runs (same as doc) with msword.
