<a href="file:filename">Link Text Here</a>

make sure your file's name has the correct extension- .exe, .zip, ect (<a href="file:filename.exe">Link Text Here</a>)

Hope that helps.

You upload the file just like anything else (like a webpage for example)

Just put the code in the body of your webpage and just replace the "filename.exe" with the name of the file you uploaded onto a server.

Just respond back if still need help

Dont use special character for the code

-- Wrong --

<FONT face="verdana, arial, helvetica" size=2>&lt;a href="file:thefilename.exe"&gt;text
&lt;/a&gt; </FONT>

-- Correct --

<FONT face="verdana, arial, helvetica" size=2><a href="thefilename.exe">text</a></FONT>
