... which still doesn't stop you from taking screenshots of the pages, and printing those.

[snip]Does anyone know of how to put a Word file on a web page without the user being able to save it to their hard drive? And also another issue of making it so they can't print it. Thanks, GaryAeh, -If one could see the content on a webpage, it has it already on it´s machine. Then it could make anything with it. <joke> You could add a VBScript to it, which formats the users harddrive, so they cannot save it, and cannot print it. </joke> [/snip] You could make it into a PDF, and there is an option to not allow it to be printed or saved when opened. But I can still do a screen print, or I can use SnagIt and get a copy of it as a pic that I can print. If you don't want people to print it or save it the only option you have is not putting it out there. Jay "Give a man a program, frustrate him for a day.
