Hello EveryOne!

I am using 'Webclient.DownloadData' method in my page to allow user to download a file. But it's getting executed without doing anything!
Can anyone tell me what can be the problem?

My Code

Hello Robby!

i m making a delay in posting my code but i am still struck at the problem. It goes like this :

...
string fileName = "setup.msi";
string remUri = Server.Mappath("download\\");
string mypath;
WebClient wb = new WebClient();
mypath = remUri + fileName;

wb.DownloadFile(myPath, fileName);

...

i m getting no exception at DownloadFile call!

What's the problem?

Thanks.
 
I am using this code to download a file from the internet, and it works fine:

Visual Basic: 
Dim wc As New System.Net.WebClient
wc.DownloadFile("http://www.interneturl.com", "C:\Local Path")

As simple as that!
 
Thanks for reply!

i am done with the problem, but without using the Webclient class. i m just specifying the full url of my .Msi file that i want for download. On clicking the url , it's opening dialog to open or save the file that is what i wanted to do.
