I don't know about the allowability issues...but the technical issue is: make it a .zip file, then it'll kick to download. Also by zipping you shorten their download time....but you probably should add a link for where to download winzip or pkunzip, in case the person doesn't have it. megan -- PLEASE NOTE URLS BELOW: [email protected] * [email protected] Megan Zurawicz, National Coordinator USGenWeb http://www.usgenweb.net -- http://www.usgenweb.org
