hi,

header("Content-type: application/vnd-ms.word"); is not what my customers
want. They may or may not want to save it in their harddisk.. but having the
header at the beginning of my page will force them to save it in their
harddisk. Some of the customers just want to view it on the web while others
want to view it in Word and possibly edit it and then save it.. how can i
achieve such flexibility for them?

thank you!!

regards,
hwee
