Try something like this (response.setHeader):
[snip]
String savepath=DLBean.getSavePath();
savepath+=exp+"_"+sub+"/";
if(DLBean.getDownloadByKey(dow))
{
if(DLBean.getNextDownload())
{
String file = DLBean.getColumn("file");
String saveasfile = DLBean.getColumn("saveasname");
String origfile = DLBean.getColumn("origfilename");
String mimetype = DLBean.getColumn("mimetype");
//read the file name.
savepath+=file;
File f = new File (savepath);
//set the content type(can be excel/word/powerpoint etc..)
response.setContentType (mimetype);
//set the header and also the Name by which user will be
prompted to save
if(!saveasfile.equals(""))
response.setHeader ("Content-Disposition", "attachment;
filename=\""+saveasfile+"\"");
else
response.setHeader ("Content-Disposition", "attachment;
filename=\""+origfile+"\"");
response.setHeader("Content-Length",(new
Long(f.length())).toString() );
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(f);
ServletOutputStream outs = response.getOutputStream();
int bit = 256;
int i = 0;
try
{
while ((bit) >= 0)
{
bit = in.read();
outs.write(bit);
}
}
catch (IOException ioe)
{
ioe.printStackTrace(System.out);
}
outs.flush();
outs.close();
in.close();
}
}

Hope this helps.
