Hyper Link That Opens .OFT in Outlook

Question

I have some Outlook .oft template files uploaded to a web server.

Is it possible to create a link to the individual files that will result in them opening in outlook?

I have thus far only managed to create straight up HTML links that simply downloads them to folder.

Is it possible to create a link that associates the .oft file with outlook and therefore executes it and opens it as the email ready to send.

Thanks

Answer 1

I am not sure I understand the problem - if Outlook is installed, it associates .OFT files with itself. If a link points to an OFT file, opening the file will launch Outlook.

If you mean to bypass the Save/Open prompt in a browser, I don't think there is a way to do that.

Answer 2

When you click the link and it shows the download right click and say always open this kind of file then click to open. After that everytime someone clicks the link it will just open up.
