You can use the DownloadComponents property to specify or determine if the Microsoft Office tools are automatically downloaded with the Web page.
Setting
The DownloadComponents property uses the following settings.
| Setting | Visual Basic | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Yes | True (–1) | Use the the necessary Office controls are downloaded when you view the saved document in a Web browser. |
| No | False (0) | (Default) Do not download the controls. |
The DownloadComponents property is available only by using Visual Basic.
Remarks
You can set the LocationOfComponents property to a central URL where the controls can be downloaded by authorized users viewing your saved data access page. The path must be valid and must point to a location that contains the necessary components, and the user must have a valid Microsoft Office 2000 license.
Office Web components add interactivity to data access pages that you save as Web pages. If you view a Web page in a browser on a computer that does not have the components installed, the interactive portions of the page will be static.
