I am trying to open a number of files from a flash grid populated from a sql database. There are several document types (.dot, .xlt, .pdf) and the only filetype i am having a problem with is the .dot files.

On some machines on the command to open the document a prompt appears to open, save or cancel (the intended result). On others the document opens straight into the explorer window. And on some machines an action cancelled error appears unless the user refreshes the page, in which case the prompt dialogue box appears

<cfinput type="Image" value="Open Document" name="openfile" enabled="{data.selectedItem!=undefined}" onClick="getURL(' http://bathweb01/intranet/MIS/HR/documents/' + data.selectedItem.Filename, '_blank')" src="icons/but_od.gif" >

Do you have any sample .dot file? Is this MS Word document template?
