    Hi folks: Im trying to make some .pdf files visible to users by using asp.net pages.Since it's sensitive i use a dll to bring the pdf from a non web older to a web folder at runtime if the user has access permission.Now the funny part is that everything works fine except that, the client system keeps asking him everytime the program he needs to use to open pdf files.But if i open the same pdf file from the desktop then it just opens with adobe acrobat.I did the registration of the file type both in my webserver and also in client,s machine. So then why this peculiar behaviour when the pdf file is being opened in a web-page?? Any help is MORE THAN WELCOME.

I think you will have to register pdf as MIME type on the server, I'm not sure how though, it comes from a memory from a few years back :) Hope it works :) Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you do criticize him, you'll be a mile away and have his shoes.
