query results to Excel problems

I'm trying to get results from a ColdFusion query called q to go into an Excel file.

There are 2 things going wrong.

1. An Excel message comes up that says "The file you are trying to open 'stc.xls', is in a different format than specified by the file extension..."

2. character values in col1 01,02,03,... are coming over to Excel as numbers 1,2,3,...

How do I fix those 2 things ?

This is the way I'm trying to do it.

<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="yes">

<cfcontent type="application/msexcel">

<cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="filename=test.xls">

<cfoutput>

   <table>

      <cfloop index="ii" from="1" to="#q.recordcount#">

         <tr>

            <td>

              #q.col1[ii]#

            </td>

            <td>

              #q.col2[ii]#

            </td>

         </tr>

      </cfloop>

   </table>

</cfoutput>
