How to open an Excel document outside the IE6.0 browser

J

Jorgen

I have an Intranet site developed in FP 2002. In one of my pages I have a
list of Word2003 and Excel2003 documents with links to each document. When I
double click a link to a word document it opens in the word application. But
when I double click a link to a Excel document it opens inside the browser IE
6.0.
Looking in the code I cannot see any difference except for the name and type
of document I link to.
Why is that so.
Regards
Jorgen

rightclick the link and choose to save target. Then you can open it in
Excel.

Right click on the link in FP2002 give the possibility to choose Properties,
Edit Hyperlink, Target Frame.
I don’t se any place to choose save target. Please clarify.

I didn’t make my point clear.
I want the Excel document to open in the Excel2003 application directly, not
as part of the IE6.0 in any way.
When I open a Word2003 document from a link on my intranet page, the
document opens in the Word2003 application itself outside the IE6.0
This code looks like the code below:
<p class="liste"><b><a href="forms/F-P801-06.doc">Mis-delivery</a><br>

When I open an Excel2003 document from the appropriate link form the same
intranet page, the document opens up in Excel inside IE. By using the right
click I am able to open it in a new window, but still inside IE.
This code looks like the code below:
<p class="liste"><b><a
href="forms/F-P501-09.xls">Konstruktionsgranskning</a><br>
Any ideas as where to look.
Regards
Jorgen
