Hello again
I managed to tackle my problem (via the link maker), it seems to work. But when I test the survey it gives this error and the link doesn't work. what can the problem be?
this is the error:
404 Not found.
Unable to resolve the request "upload/surveys/571666/files/Oefening dankbaarheid (u).docx".
The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.
If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

Hi, Ellen,
when I use this link maker I get something like this:
You see the link starts with my installation folder.
And: It is not the best idea to open a docx-file.
Usually the respondent will see the "file open/save" dialog and has to start Word to see the file content.
Better you save the file as pdf.
