Use this before your CFCONTENT tag:
<CFHEADER NAME="Content-Disposition" VALUE="inline; filename=myworddoc.doc">

Subject: CFCONTENT download name
I'm trying to create an MS Word doc based upon a query and information entered
on a form preceeding this report processing template.
In the processing template I've tried using:
<cfcontent type="application/msword">
The query runs, but all the information I entered in the form preceeding it is
lost.
I've tried using:
<cfcontent type="application/rtf">
This works. The query data and all the info from the preceeding form are there,
and a download prompt comes up in the browser.
HOWEVER, the initial filename in the download prompt is the name of the CFML
template which processed it (reports.cfm).
I want the name of the file that shows up in that download prompt to be
report.doc so that the user won't have to think about about naming the file
correctly when they select a place to save it.
I've tried the technique suggested by Borkman Lee:
http://servername/cfdocs/index.cfm/xyz.doc?fuseaction=showWordDoc
It doesn't work on my server.
Does anyone else know how to do this?
Please copy me on your reply as the list sometimes take a few hours to send
messages to me.
Thanks!
OH, and by the way - the first person to answer this correctly is going to get 2
free movie tickets.
