  Hi all,

   I have an application which goes out to various websites and tries to down load info, on one occasion it finds a .csv file and i am then presented with the usual "File Download" box with the OPEN, SAVE and CANCEL buttons, of which i want to press save.

   Does anyone know how to do this ??

   I have been trying the findwindow and findwindoxex API's but as the "File Download" box appears my VB application stops until a button is pressed manually.

  
          awnd = FindWindow(vbNullString, "MyApplication")
          hwnd = FindWindowEx(awnd, 0, vbNullString, "File Download")  
          DoEvents
           If hwnd <> 0 Then
              lObjhWnd = FindWindowEx(hwnd, 0, "Button", "Save")
              DoEvents
              iii = SendMessage(lObjhWnd, BM_CLICK, 0, ByVal 0&)
              bFoundFileDownload = True
              DoEvents
           End If
           DoEvents

   Any help would be appreciated.
