I am still a little unclear as to what exactly you are trying to
accomplish here. You create a csv file on the server that you would
like your users to be able to download. So why not just put a direct
link to the file in a webpage. The user then has the ability to do
whatever they like with the file.
However, I think what you would really like is for the user to click
on the link and to have the file open in Excel? If this is the case,
then try using CFMX to serve up the file using a mime type of
something like excel/ms-excel. This would have to be placed in the
header of the document being served.
If I am off here, please clarify exactly what it is you are trying to do.
