You can't stop a user from typing whatever they wish into the address bar. If you want to restrict access to the PDFs you can put them in a folder which isn't under the web root, and therefore not accessible by typing the address in the browser, and then you can stream the files through an ASP file to control how / when users download them. For more information there are loads of links on google for "ADO Stream" or "ADODB.Stream" Dan

I can't disable read access on the folder because my ASP's need to access this folder. Thanks ________________________________ YAHOO!
