wintersilke Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I've got a web page that has a downloadable .doc with some VBA code in it. When the link is clicked, the user's browser tries to open the doc file embedded in the browser, fails because of the VBA code, and then opens the file in MSWord. I would like to make this process more seamless and have come to understand that there a combination of html code and php code or java that will can force the user's local computer open the server saved word document using MS Word. I discovered that php is not installed on that server and while I have requested that it be installed, that process may take several weeks. Does anyone know of java commands that will do this action? Any help would be appreciated. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/187635-using-java-to-force-a-downloaded-doc-file-to-open-in-ms-word/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
