dmccloskey: Kishorchari is correct, there are serveral ways to configure things to support your plants. We were toying with an idea that would have the individual plants hosting their own QAD db's with replication back to a central hot site. The economy slowdown has put that on hold for now...

We're using RF Express at most of our plants. But it's too entangled with MFG/Pro (i.e. if the QAD database is down, you barcoders can't do anything). We've just implemented Error Proof by Freedom Technologies at one plant. It uses it's own SQL database that allows transactions to be stored...

It was being caused by the way my business logic was setup. I've got the query results stored in a temp table and I had to set up the BL code to run the download if the action is "Download" else run the query page. /*sample code - outside(after) of checking if "POST" or "GET" */ if cAction =...

Hi Webguy, That worked. I had to play with the calls a little bit as my query builds a temptable. I've got it putting out the file and it prompts for the download. The problem I'm running into is that the original page that the download button is on is getting it's html code put into the...

Trying Casper's solution I have received a multitude of different errors depending on what I include or don't include in the http header info (using Cecil's example of some the different options available). I've gone from getting CGI Misbehaving to missing or bad http headers to "Internet...

Since I'm having issues with this and my deadline is looming near, I've decided to go with setting up a directory on my webspeed server box and mounting it as a remote directory in IIS (v6). Now it still doesn't see the file. If I copy the file over to the webserver it sees the file and...

Using Cecil's suggestion, I have an html page called getorders_dl.html that does the export of the file as a memptr data type. Here's my URL link for trying to download the file: <a href="getorders_dl.html?filename=/apps/trade/out/test.xls">/apps/trade/out/test.xls</a> When I click on the...

The file is a file on the linux server. Trying to make it accessible to the web server is proving to be tricky. Would using copy-lob from the file to a memprt and then out to a file to the user work as opposed to it being straight from the database? I'll try that and see if it makes it...

Thanks, FrancoisL, That worked. How do I get this file moved over to the web root as it is dynamicaly created/re-created when they run the report? COPY-LOB just moves it to my working directory and if I put in the root directory the page errors out because it can't find the web root directory...

Well, I've tried both suggestions. I copied the file manually to the webserver and did a link to it and I get the following error: Compile Error: ./test.xls ** Unable to understand after -- "ÐÏࡱ". (247) ** ./test.xls Could not understand line 1. (198) Unable to run Web object...

That didn't work. My setup is that the file is on a Linux box with webspeed servers running on it and the website is hosted on a windows server. How would I make it visible to the webserver to let the user download it? My apologies for not giving that information in my initial post.

I need to be able to send a file to a user's computer from our webspeed website. I've seen plenty of examples of uploads (we have a webpage that does that already). But I've not seen any examples using webspeed of allowing the user to download a file to their computer. Does anyone have any...
