My web application generates an excel and sets a filename to the excel for
download. Sample file name is "aaa-09.02.2006-to-09.08.2006.xls". This is how
the code will show:
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;
filename="+fileName+";");
But when I try to download the excel from the application, excel opens /
saves the file as aaa-09[1].02.2006-to-09.08.2006.xls thereby inserting
numbers to the filename. I have tried the solutions given in the group like
setting the Excel "OPEN" as default,etc., but nothing seemed to work. Please
let me know how to force excel to retain the filename.
