Can output as HTML but not as XLS

Hi all!

I haven't being doing that much in ASP, but I have to create this:
It has to read out data from some DB to excel.

The following (corrected) code works if just it outputs as html, once
the Response.ContentType is excel. then it offers to open/save the
file, and stops - file not found - what do I do wrong?

<%
'Change HTML header to specify Excel's MIME content type.
'Response.Buffer = TRUE
' Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
%>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Excel</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<form name="ExcelForm">
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD colspan=3>Created: <%=cstr(now)%></TD>
</TR>
</table>

<TABLE border="1">
<tr><td><b>Code</b></td><td><b>Description 1</b></td><td><b>Description
2</b></td><td><b>Qty</b></td><td><b>Price</b></td><td><b>Total</b></td></tr>
<%

dim rsTree
set rsTree = server.createobject("adodb.recordset")
rsTree.activeconnection = DSN_Oracle

dim txt
txt = "select blah!"
rsTree.Open(txt)

do while not rsTree.eof
taso=""
for J=1 to cint(field_value(2,rsTree))
taso = taso & "&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"
next

'*********************
response.write("<tr><td>" + taso + field_value(0,rsTree) +
"</td><td>" + _
field_value(1,rsTree) + "</td><td>" + field_value(6,rsTree) +
"</td><td>" + field_value(5,rsTree) + "</td><td>a</td><td>b</td></tr>")
response.write(chr(10))

rsTree.movenext
loop
rsTree.close
%>

</TABLE>
</form>
</BODY>
</HTML>
