Question : How Do You Force a .doc Link to Open Up in Word not a Browser in Flash

I am using the getURL in Flash to open up a word document in a separate window.  How do you force it to open up in Microsoft Word not Internet Explorer.  What code can I put in the "GetURL" actionscript to do this?

Answer : How Do You Force a .doc Link to Open Up in Word not a Browser in Flash

Yes it worked.

I start my browser then i go to this url http://localhost/myswf.swf and shows up a movie with a button, when pressed prompts the dialog asking to open or save.

Using iexplorer as the web browser.

// The code i used on my ASP file

<%
Dim objStream, myContents, myFileName

myFileName = "XmlNotepad.doc"

Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
Response.AddHeader "content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" & myFileName

Set objStream = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
objStream.Open
objStream.LoadFromFile Server.MapPath(myFileName)

myContents = objStream.ReadText

Response.BinaryWrite myContents

objStream.Close
Set objStream = Nothing
%>

// The code used on my fla.

on (press) {
      getURL("XmlNotepad.asp");
}
