from django.core.servers.basehttp import FileWrapper

def get_file(request):
    filename = '...'
    content_type = 'application/vnd.ms-excel'
    file_path = os.path.join(store_path, filename)
    response = HttpResponse(FileWrapper(file(file_path)), content_type=content_type)
    response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename=%s' % (
        filename.encode('utf-8') if isinstance(filename, unicode) else filename,
    )
    response['Content-Length'] = os.path.getsize(path)
