Thanks for the reply Joe, I found a solution within the tag itself. Unfortuately I couldn't use CFContent to generate the spreadsheet.

I have it working almost to where I need it but I'm running into an odd problem. I have a field that is coming in from a SQL Server VarChar with '000000' as the value in the field. It is being output to the HTML as 000000 in the table but for some reason the excel file is translating it as a numeric value and saving a single 0 in the file. The problem is that it's *supposed* to be a numeric value, so now I guess the question is how to I force the tag (or more to the point, Excel) to save the numbers as characters? TIA!
