I have created two hyperlinks on my page. The files that
the hyperlinks linked to were in the same folder. One of
the hyperlink opened the file directly and the other gave
me the "File Download" dialog box when I clicked on it. I
just wanted it to open the file without the file download
dialog box. Could you tell me how to fix it.

What are the files you are linking to? If it is not a
'standard' web file then it may need to be downloaded.

That is normal behavior with a database. You would use ASP
pages to view & edit database information.
