This is what I [basically] use: <cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="attachment;filename=your.xls" charset="windows-1252"> <cfcontent type="application/xls"><cfoutput>#toString(yourByteArrayOutputStream)#</cfoutput> The "attachment;" token in cfheader tells the browser to download it vs. open it inline.
