So there is no way to force Sharepoint/IE to allow direct opening of a .FRD file?

When selecting &quot;Edit Document&quot;, the file opens directly in FRx.

When selecting "Edit Document", the file opens directly in FRx.

I was able to find a workaround. &nbsp;If you click the drop down menu next to the file, and click &quot;Edit Document&quot;, it opens the file straight into FRx. &nbsp;After clicking that edit option, you can then open the file directly. &nbsp;So in order to open the file directly, you simply have to click Edit. &nbsp;

I have loaded FRx files (.FRD) on my WSS 3.0 site. &nbsp;However, when attempting to open these files, IE requires me to save the file, instead of opening right away. &nbsp;I have added .FRD to the MIME Types on the IIS server. &nbsp;I have .FRD files set to a default program in Windows.<br />
<br />
What other settings need to be altered?<br />
<br />
I am working on a Windows 7(64 bit) machine, running IE 8.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Open FRx files directly from Sharepoint Site

Web browsers are applications used primarily to display documents, files and media from the Internet, identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that can be a page, image, video or other file. Some browsers require the use of add-ons or extensions to safely render the information they receive; others have systems built into them to perform the same functions.
