Hint Short Cut: Add this to your code & documentation to help you find this page.
http://www.notesninjas.com/#AgentFileName or http://www.notesninjas.com/A555F9/nn.nsf/ByAlias/AgentFileName

So you have a lovely agent that exports your data in excel format using the lovely table format but you want it to present the file using the current day-month-year instead of coming up as save as the agent name each time.

Solution is easy after the magic line that exports the file as ms-excel xls mime format thingy you add the content disposition line.

Print "Content-Type:application/vnd.ms-excel"
Print "Content-disposition: filename=Ninja_Report_" & Day(Today) & "-" & month(Today) & "-" & year(Today) & ".xls"

Super.
