    I created a form in Contact Form 7 and used the database extension where it works perfectly, now I have created another form and when I want to be able to create an Excel Internet Query where the user can click on the link and the table opens in the browser (as it does on the original form I created), now it asks to Save or Open instead of just opening in the browser. I cannot see what I am doing differently from when I created the first short code for my first form. Maybe someone can enlighten me? Thank you!

    Excel Internet Query export downloads a .iqy file that you open with Excel. It doesn’t display in the browser. I’m confused by the question.

    No, I am the one who is confused – I just saw what I did. I had selected the wrong item. All I needed to do was select the form, the select the [cfdb-datatable] shortcode, click on it and copy the url for my link. I guess I need to write these things down, obviously I can’t remember them! Thank you for your reply!
