I have created a customer information pack that is currently loaded onto a CD. It has an autorun facility so that when loaded it opens a HTML intro page which has links to various Excel files such as loan calculators etc. My manager has asked me to look at ways I can achieve the same result but not base it on a CD and instead have it available on our website. The plan is to have a zip file download then extracted to the c Drive. The problem occurs when the client opens the folder. I would like to duplicate the autorun feature the CD has so that the HTML page opens immediately without the client rummaging around in the folder looking for the index.htm file.

I have Googled but all I can turn up is how to do an autorun on a CD. I was hoping someone can suggest a course of action I can take to achieve this or is it simply not possible.

Thanks

Peter
