I have read this
http://www.chronoengine.com/faqs/57-cfv4/cfv4-actions/2757-how-do-i-use-the-file-downloader-action.html
But am confused as to how I implement this in V5.
I am doing a simple landing page form.
Visitor provides Name and Email Address, passes nocaptcha and submits form.
On Submit I would like.
1. DB Save
2. Email Results to Admin
3. Automatic File Download
4. Redirect to new page (or if not possible display thank you message).
Thanks
Rowan.

Hi Rowan,
There is a File Downloader action in the Utilities group that should handle a Download here. The problems I have found with it are that in some cases/browsers it takes control from ChronoForms and so it has to be the last action so may not work with a thank you message or redirect :-(
If it's an option I prefer to add a download link or button in the Thank you page.

PS Just looking and it should be possible to use JQuery to auto-trigger a download in the Thank you page, that might be a neater solution.
