What is the simplest way to imbed a Word document into a web page created
with Publisher and provide access to it via a download button?

Thank you

Thank you for your response.  Actually, the text of the document I want the
user to be able to download is already incorporated into the web site.  
Essentially, I would like them to be able to download, and print it, if they
wish, without having to copy and paste it.  I believe I read somewhere if you
convert the file to a zip file and add the desired compressed document to the
form as an object, showing an icon or text "download X here", when someone
clicks on the icon or "download here" text box, the appropriate download
sequence will be activiated.  I have tried this, but have not been successful
with this approach.  Other ideas?

Also, is there a way to search the MVP Knowledge Base?  I can't seem to find
a search device.

Thank you.

Jim

You do not have inserted objects in a web publication. You upload the file
(zip, doc, pdf, whatever) to the server and then on the web page you
hyperlink (text or graphic, your choice) to the URL of the uploaded file.
