to open a new window, but I'm not too sure what you're after - as a downloading file usually opens up in its own little dialog box. I wanted to have the Excel list download in a new window because when you want to view another list (Download) you have to click the "Back" button to return to the website. Ideally, download each sepperate list so you can switch from one to the other as required.
thank you for your reply. Please could you explain, does the page url go in the code, say my page is www.anypage.com and I hyperlink to a download in folder Downloads called lists.xls
How would the hyperlink code look please?
Thank you once again
<a target="_blank" href="Downloads/lists.xls">CLICK HERE</a>

thank you for your reply. Yes, that's it and to return to the web page you must click the "Back" button and the excel sheet closes.

target="_blank"
within an <a>
element should do the trick.Have you tried it, had any problems?
Please can you tell me if this is correct:
