That makes no difference as far as I can see, as soon as Windows sees the .doc extensions it will fire up Word to receive the file.
Windows sets more store in the file extension than the mime type.

Robert, search for the "content-disposition" header on google, it's possible to do this, I just don't remember exactly offhand.
I know that in Apache, the directives:
---- ForceType application/octet-stream Header set Content-Disposition attachment ----
does the trick (I have tried this specifically with IE and .doc files). I would assume the Zope equivalent would be something like:
---- <dtml-call
"REQUEST['RESPONSE'].setHeader('content-type','application/octet-stream')">
<dtml-call "REQUEST['RESPONSE'].setHeader('content-disposition','attachment')"> ----
I think you would want to use the RESPONSE object directly, wouldn't you? <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('content-type','application/octet-stream')"> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('content-disposition','attachment')"> Cheers, Tom P
