Add a download link

[MarcTC]

I am building a SPWA based web application. I want to add a download link to the web page for users to download the data to an Excel spreadsheet like "Donwload to Spreadsheet" link shown in the following Yahoo Historical Stock Price page:
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=^GSPC

Any hints are appreciated!

You will find many good references if you go to http://support.sas.com and then search for:

download csv

The key is to create to a streaming stored process that sets the appropriate MIME headers. Give this (untested) code a try:

[pre]
%let RV=%sysfunc(appsrv_header(Content-type, application/vnd.ms-excel));
%let RV=%sysfunc(appsrv_header(Content-disposition, %str(attachment; filename=temp.csv)));

ods listing close;
ods csv file=_webout;
proc print data=sashelp.class; run; quit;
ods csv close;
[/pre]
