no idea off hand but a quick google search should tell you

you will need to use html code in order to do it

it is essentially the same as a link except that instead of linking to a htm or html file, it links to your zip or doc file

Be aware that for anything like a .doc or .pdf file, it may try to open the file instead, if the visitor has the software needed to do this. I recommend for those types of file, you instruct the visitor to right click and use "save as".
