The easiest way is to just add the

If you want to
automatically download the file under script control and even give it the
name you want there is some script that can do this as well. In fact, you don't even need to have a file or a URL to form the content of the download. Using script it is possible to build a file blob out of whatever data you want, and download it with the name of your choice. So if you work with some type of commercial or proprietary file format and the underlying data is in QuickBase it is possible to build the file dynamically and download it with the name and extension of your choice.
