Good Afternoon, Thank you all for your replies. Initially, taking out the <cfcontent> tags did not yield any negative results. The page came back fine to the browser. Putting the tags back on, and looking at the log files more or less confirmed what was happening, I just don't know why. There is a behind the scene login process that occurs. We capture the windows login ID by using an activeX control, and storing it in a session variable. That activeX control is called on a page that is called with a <cflocation> in the onSessionStart of the Application.cfc. In the log files, it shows that login page trying to be called within the directory structure of the page trying to generate the excel. It appears, in some instances, that excel is not being recognized by the current session, depending on the variables being passed in the URL. We had tried using the URLencoded tag, which seemed to break things to a greater degree, for some reason. For the time being, we replaced the spaces in the URL variable with %20 which appears to fix the problem, but I still don't think that is truly the correct one.
Thanx again for all your help!
