Restricting file copy on network
-
Hi, I have written a small asp script that simply gets all the file names from a directory and then list them as hyperlinks. When I click on that hyperlink, a dialogue appears asking to "Open", "Save", "Cancel" and "More Info". I don't want this dialogue box to appear because user can save that file to his/her local pc then. I don't want to let user copy that file. I want it to be like if user clicks on the link then the file only gets opened with the application it is associated with. Please help me in this regard as its urgent. With best regards, Zee_Zee

If a user can view the file on their own PC, then they can save it. This is a fundamental truth that is very difficult to get around. See DigitalRights Management.
