Nick Trying to use Scontrol_URL merge field to get to saved binary file
I am trying to use an Scontrol to save an application file (an MS Word .doc file) and then address it in the corresponding HTML script.
The merge field {!Scontrol_URL} returns a URL to the application file (https://na1.salesforce.com/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=01N3000000000S0). With an active salesforce.com session, I can paste this into the IE6 address field and it'll bring up the embedded file as expected.
However, when I use this URL inside the Scontrol HTML script, I can't seem to get the URL to work. (I have seen examples where this merge field value is used successfully in "APPLET archive=" and "SCRIPT src=" references, so I don't see how this use is any different.)
What do I need to do in the HTML script (or otherwise) to get the merge field URL to work for something like a .doc file?

From there, you will have a handle to the IFRAME from your parent frame (the scontrol), which you should be able to use to script/control the Word doc.
Let us know how it goes.
