I am creating a form app that uses a webBrowser control and allows users
   to interact with a web hosted application. Users can query the web
app and generate a CSV file that they should be able to save locally.

When the button to save the csv is hit on the page displayed in the
webBrowser control, the CSV file generated by the app opened in a new
webBrowser control and rendered as plain text with comma seperated format.

How can I force the csv file to be dowloaded instead of rendered in a
new window?

Thank You for your help.
