Hi Lenny,

This is how I would do it:
1. Zip the file and place it in the Dropbox folder.
2. Highlight the file, open the context menu using the applications key or
Shift + F10, arrow down to, Copy Dropbox Link, and press enter.  This will
paste a Dropbox link to your clipboard.
3. Create a new email to whomever you're sending the file to, and paste the
Dropbox download link into the message body of the email, but you're not
through just yet!  We want to change the Dropbox download link by changing 1
character.  Below is an example of what we're going to do.  In the link
below there's a, 0, at the end.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/94btj8w58bxdzx0/Windows%2010%20Current%20Version.txt?dl=0

What you want to do is change this, 0, to a, 1, like this:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/94btj8w58bxdzx0/Windows%2010%20Current%20Version.txt?dl=1

Now when someone clicks on the download link they can choose to Run or Save
it by using their right arrow key to select the option and pressing enter on
the selected option.  This way they don't have to download from the Dropbox
website and just download as they normally would.

Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers.
