I want to know how can I prompt the downloader dialog box of internet explorer by using shell execution.
I have seen some people do that before on some website but I do'nt remember how to do that.
example
shell execution "www.domaine\file.mp3"
this execution will prompt a dialog box ask me to choose the folder to save file.
how can i do that, thanks for your help

here is the solution
Private Declare Function DoFileDownload Lib "shdocvw" _
(ByVal lpszFile As String) As Long
Private Sub Command1_Click()

Dim sDownload As String
sDownload="http://www.domaine.com/file.mp3"
sDownload = StrConv(sDownload, vbUnicode)
Call DoFileDownload(sDownload)

End Sub
it will promt the download dialog of internet explorer

I always wonder about something like this one thing does ie has to be open
