Problem while downloading

In my project i have a link pressing on which you will be downloaded a MSWord document.But on some machines it is not showing the message box having buttons Open,Save etc.Just it is opening the document.How can I stop opening the document directly(without asking options of open,save etc...)
thanks in advance.

One approach we have used before is to use a Servlet to send the file back to the client and change the return content type to a completely unknown type. Since the browser will never have encountered it before, it prompts with the "Save as" box.

  • Japanese character problem while downloading file to application server

    Hello All,
    We are facing a strange problem while downloading a file to application server when file contains japanese text.
    We are downloading vendor and customer information in a flat file format on application server. When the login language is EN program show ouput in a properly formatted manner.
    When the login language is JA (japanese) program does download file with customer vendor data. I can see the description is japanese language but the formatting is gone for a toss.
    We are facing similar issue with other programs downloading files on the application server.
    I am using OPEN DATASET........ENCODING DEFAULT. and working on unicode enabaled ECC 6.0 system
    Quick help appriciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi
    Sometimes this also happens because of your desktop setting.Make sure that your OS also supports the JAPANESSE language.
    Ask your technical support team to enable them in your desktop.
    Thanks & Regards

  • Facing problem while downloading ALV grid Output into Excel

    Hi Guys,
    I am facing problem while downloading ALV grid Output into Excel.
    It is downloading into excel, but all character columns first and next all quantity columns it is displaying. But I need columns order as it is in the grid.
    If I take all columns as characters it works fine. But it will be problem for calculating total, subtotals of quantity columns
    Can someone help me regarding this
    thanks for your help

    Hi,
    Open up Excel on your desktop. Goto Tools > Macro > Security.
    Make sure that your security is set to Medium (or less). SAP uses OLE automation to run the Excel instance and in Office 2003 (for example), Microsoft has increased their default security setting to High. With the High setting, the output to Excel fails.
    Was this your problem? Don't forget those points, either.
    check with this wetther it is solved or not.

    Hi,
    Welcome to SCN!!!.
    Please go through the forum rules. This has been discussed many times. You can search in the forum for this.
    Infact there is no problem. Just expand that excel cell. You can see the full value. This is standard excel property.

  • Bootcamp problem while downloading software

    Hello,
    I'm trying to install Windows 7 via bootcamp assistant, but I've always the same problem.
    While downloading the newest software and drivers for my mac book air (this is the first step of all), the download aborts with the message

    Well, I tried it about 20 times or more, today, yesterday, ..!
    Anybody has an idea?
    Best regards,

    Sometimes, Boot Camp Assistant doesn't work with the process of downloading the Boot Camp drivers.
    As you say you have got a Late 2010 MacBook Air, these are the drivers you need, so download them from the Apple site > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1630

  • Code Page Problem while downloading to PC in DUF Format

    Hi,
    I have a problem where in i tried to download a XML Structure that has been built in using ABAP and then download the same as .duf file in PC Frontend. The file is then used to upload the details in some webportal.
    The Problem is, there is a text which contains a special character ' ī ' in Latvian format which while getting downloaded is changed as # (can be seen when opened using Notepad). I tried passing Codepage 1900 (checked from table TCP0C) to the function Module 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'. Now it changes the special character as ' ļ '.
    How do i overcome this problem with codepage or do i need to make any settings?
    Any help on this will be greatly appreciated. Let me know incase of further explanations or details are required.
    Thanks,

  • Problem while downloading file from custom table

    Hi All,
    Im trying to download the file from the custom table where i have stored the uploaded files through apex.
    I have created the download procedure as mentioned in the oracle docs ,
    And given the execute grant for public user.
    and calling that procedure by calling the URL -- #OWNER#.download_my_file?p_file=#ID#
    But im getting the below error
    Forbidden
    You don't have permission to access /pls/apex/owner.download_my_file on this server.
    Oracle-Application-Server-10g/10.1.2.0.2 Oracle-HTTP-Server Server at servername Port number
    Can any one tell whats the problem here.
    Thanks in advance

    Your function apex_util.get_blob_file_src under region, the first argument must be the name of page item anywhere in your application that is of type "file browse." So if your form for uploading the blob content is on page 11 and the file browse item is "P11_FILE_NAME" then your query would look like below:
    SELECT FILE_ID
         , FILE_NAME
          , CASE WHEN NVL(dbms_lob.getlength(BLOB_CONTENT),0) = 0
           THEN NULL
            ELSE
                  CASE WHEN attach_mimetype like 'image%'
                THEN '<img src="'||apex_util.get_blob_file_src('P11_FILE_NAME',id)||'" />'
                ELSE
                     '<a href="'||apex_util.get_blob_file_src('P11_FILE_NAME',id)||'">Download</a>'
               end
           END new_img
        FROM TABLE_NAME
    GET_BLOB_FILE_SRC FunctionAs an alternative to using the built-in methods of providing a download link, you can use the APEX_UTIL.GET_BLOB_FILE_SRC function. One advantage of this approach, is the ability to more specifically format the display of the image (with height and width tags). Please note that this approach is only valid if called from a valid Oracle Application Express session. Also, this method requires that the parameters that describe the BLOB to be listed as the format of a valid item within the application. That item is then referenced by the function.>
