The problem is when I try to open the document. I have been able to bring
up a Word window with the document using Netscape, but we are required to
use IE. I have set the content type of the servlet response to
application/msword, application/rtf, and text/rtf without success (the last
two I found in Netscape). IE will just give me a 'The page cannot be
displayed error'.
On the few ocassions when I have been able to bring up a Word screen (mostly
using Netscape) it will give me an error saying
"Word cannot open the document.
Try one of the following:
* On the file menu, click Open to Open the document.
* Make sure the document has a .DOC extension"
Probably I should also mention that I did change the default content type
for RTF documents in Windows to the ones I was using in the servlet.

Hi folks:
Thanks for your responses to my last question. Now I have to ask another
one and I hope somebody can answer:
I've gotten a new requirement to create RTF documents on a servlet, the
browser should then open MSWord and view the output. I've created the
template and set the contentType to aplication/msword, but it won't work!!
Could you direct me somewhere where I could learn how to accomplish this, or
could somebody tell me how to make it work? does a contentType specific for
RTF exist?? Thnks!!
