 Open a file in the client browser from it'is local drive

I want open a file in a client browser. The file must be on the client hard
drive.
I tried to do that with the FileSystemObject, but it seems operate only on
the server.
Is it possible to open a local file ?
Thanks
Jacques

The client can't create the FSO due to security reasons.  If you lower the
security level of the client then it will work.  This is for good reason,
though, would you want web sites reading your hard drive?
