From: Trapulo on 17 Mar 2010 13:15 I've an application that worked well on IIS6. I moved it to IIS7, and response.contenttype is now ignored. my code ends with: Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel" Response.Flush() Response.End() But the browser receives "application/octet-stream" as mime type! IE shows the XLS file as html/text, and FFOX propts to save. Why? :(( thanks

Could it be related to this bug report? https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/480689/response-flush-clears-content-type-header?wa=wsignin1.0 I notice you're using Flush. They suggest that if you set the Content Length it won't happen. -- Mike GoTinker, C# Blog http://www.gotinker.com

Maybe it helps
