XML output directly opens in browser

I'm using OAS 10g R2. We are generating all reports with PDF output directly in browser. For some of them we implemented Excel Output but it doesn't work very well. After that, we deployed Excel Output through Rep2Excel but has problems too.
Finally, we opted to generate reports with XML output, using DesFormat=XML and DesType=CACHE. We want this output to be opened directly in Microsoft Excel, but the browsers (Firefox or IE) open that directly so users have to save the output as a XML file and then open them with Excel.
Does any one know any way that output can be directed to Excel without this additional step?
Thanks!
