Al that is needed is a mime type...if the user has Excel installed on the
desktop.

Hello,

I'm using ColdFusion to display a Access database in HTML format on a
page. This way the user can look at the info. BUT I want to add a
feature so the table can be exported (as excel maybe?) onto the user's
hardrive. So they could get the individual table as a file on their
computer. It can be in Access format, but then the user would have to
convert it themself, which would also be fine.

Any clues on how to do this would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jon.
