Excel or IE caching csv

G

Guest

I am accessing a website that generates csv reports for many different
facilities I service. The csv files all have the same name and, subsequently,
the same URL. There is some kind of backend script that generates these files
and opens them in Excel for me automatically when I click the appropriate
link.

The first time I click the link, it works fine. The second time, I click the
link that is associated with a different facility, but the data for the first
facility still shows up in the csv Excel file. I have played with IE's cache,
cookies, history, and advanced settings to no avail. I could not find a
setting for any kind of cache in Excel.

I am using Windows XP SP2 (with all updates) and Office XP (2002, with all
updates). Another strange thing is that I have several other machines in my
office that are set up with the same software that are experiencing this
issue. However, the helpdesk for the site I am using said they cannot
replicate the issue and therefore are unable to help me. I called another
helpdesk and they are also unable to help me. So, help!

I'm afraid I need to bump this topic. Nobody has replied and I have been
unable to find a solution elsewhere.
