Response Filename for Download Messages   Related Types This message was discovered on ASPFriends.com 'ngfx-msoffice' list. Chuck Peper -- Moved from [aspngfreeforall] to [ngfx-msoffice] by James Avery <Click here to reveal e-mail address> -- I am sending an excel file to the browser using this technique Response.ContentType ="application/vnd.ms-excel" Response.OutputStream.Write(bytearray, 0, bytearray.Length) Unfortunately the filname on the browser is allways the blah.aspx filename. Is there anyway to change it, so it is filename.xls? Note I am streaming the file from a database. I know I could save the file to the server and then response.redirect to the server filename. However, I would like to avoid the problems with saving/deleting files on the server. Reply to this message...        Herring, Anthony Kyle Chuck, Try this. Works for me.

I'm assuming I am not using the right syntax of response.binarywrite (although I may be way off). Currently I'm doing something like this... [Original message clipped] It usually just passes straight through this w/out sending any file to the user. I remember in ASP classic, all I had to do was this line and it worked like a charm: >> Response.ContentType = "application/" & Request("format") Any ideas? -----Original Message----- From: Herring, Anthony Kyle [mailto:Click here to reveal e-mail address] Sent: Friday, May 17, 2002 9:05 AM To: ngfx-msoffice Subject: [ngfx-msoffice] RE: Response Filename for Download Chuck, Try this.
