Hi again,

	Here's how you do it in ASP/VBScript:

Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "filename=" & FileName

	You'll have to change it to use whatever your platform does to
add headers, but the name/value pair should be the same.

Hello,

One more question concerning response headers. I am using struts and
java to server up an excel file. However, when the user gets the file
(which currently opens in their browser) the file is called
createReport.do. Is there anyway, using the response header, to change
the filename to foo.xls?
