create a page with links to files for others to download

I can see how to create a page that will allow other to clink on a link and a
dialogue box will pop up for the download.

I am going to have files that I want to add everyday. Is there a way to
have FrontPage automatically create a link to each file in a specified
folder? This would be a big time saver.

No. However, have you host enable browsing of a folder, then link to the folder.

Hi,
assuming you can use asp something like this would do the trick
<%
set oFso = createobject("scripting.filesystemobject")
for each f in oFso.getfolder(server.mappath("/FolderName")).files
response.write "<a href=""/Folder/" & f.name & """>Download " & f.name &
"</a><br>"
next
%>
You'd probably want to pretty up the output a bit but this should get you
started
