Streaming Excel/Word File and the resulting Password Popup

[MHenscheid]

I am streaming excel and word files through an ASP page. For security reasons, I have chosen to stream it rather than direct link.

The file that the files are stored in are NOT accessable from the web, but are accessable to the script through the file system.

Here is the problem...Everytime I open one of the files (through the asp page) a password dialog pops up:
The title says: Enter Network Password
the box says: "Please enter your authentication information. Resource: ",then lists the URL of the ASP page, then 2 text boxes, one for username and one for password, then 2 buttons "Ok" and "Cancel".

If you press "cancel", the file loads with no problem. What I am trying to do is get rid of the password dialog in the first place.

Any ideas?

Hello, I have the same problem as you do. I am writting an asp page to open an excel with the passing data. It asks me for the password, i do not know what to do now. It works on some of the computer in my campany, not on some of the computer. I suppose it must be the configuration problem. Have you got the solution by now? If you know, plz post it back. Thanks
