Hey everyone! I am new to website building and I am having an issue. What I am trying to do is add link to a webpage, so that users can download a file, most likely in .doc format. I cant seem to figure out how it is done. I have uploaded it to the file manager that the host provides, I just cant figure out how to get the right address for the link to work. I found several articles online on the subject but none seem to work. I get the same error message when I go to test the link. "File not Found" I use StartLogic as a host, and am building the site using Office Publisher 2007. The site is jtsclub.com, it is for my Dad's Sportsman's Club. I am sure it is probably an easy thing to do, but I am lost. Any help would be great!

Some servers will not allow doc files. You can always convert it to html or put it into a zip file.

What's the file name? A space is allowed in most desktop operating systems, but not in web addresses, and must be escaped as %20. This may or may not be the type of problem you're having.
