Hi Hutch,

Have tried adding the following to your local$httpHeader value?

Content-Type: text/tab-separated-values<@CRLF>

or,

Content-Type: application/octet-stream<@CRLF>

You need to define a 'Content-Type' to make 'Content-Disposition' work in
most cases. You may also want to add the second 'filename' property to the
'Content-Disposition' line, like so:

Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=<@DQ>Somefile.tsv<@DQ><@CRLF>

Hope this helps. Cheers...
