Investigating further, the resource in question opened in the browser successfully when I shortened it's file name. Lesson learned is that long file names cause problems ?

However, when you browse to them and click on a PDf file, it does not open in Reader but within the browser and I am finding that the PDF reader plug-in for the Browse activity is not able to open many of the files - it just tries then chokes with a blank screen. Not particular large files either (3MB or so). The same files open perfectly well with Read activity from the Journal. So, how can we get it to force downloads that then open in Read activity? There is a check box "force downloads", can we make that take affect globally in the public folder? David Leeming
