Incorrect filenames are being showing in downloading.

[Guest]

Hi experts,
I am giving filename as "clearbenefits.infosys.txt" to
Response.AddHeader as filename parameter. After clicking the download link
filename on dialogbox is showing as "clearbenefits[1].infosys.txt". How can i
avoid this. Can any one help me.
I am using IE6 version, Is this is a explorer problem or coding
problem.

Code:

Dim objReader as new binaryreader(File.Open(filepath,
FileMode.Open))
Response.AddHeader ("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=" & name)
Response.ContentType = contentType
Response.BinaryWrite (objReader.readbytes(filesize))
objreader.close()

Thanks for helping.

Neither - it simply means that there is already a file of that name in the
folder where you are trying to download the new one...

Thanks for your response.

It is coming even there is no file with same name.
it is the problem with "DOT"s in filename.If i give more than one dot
it will show [1] for first dot.

How can i avoid this.
