Its in VB but you should be able to convert.

VB

Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=""" & strFileName & """")
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"

Response.Charset = ""

Response.ContentEncoding = Encoding.UTF8

' Turn off the view state.
EnableViewState = False

Response.Clear()
Response.Write(strExcelFileContents) 'Your Excel file

' End the response.
Response.End()
