Changing Default Excel File name

Hi, my users are currently operating version 8.3 utilising pre-canned Report Studio and Query Studio reports. However, they've raised an issue wherebye the default file names that COGNOS gives to excel exports are too long (causes some kind of error with pivot tables).

I realise that there's a simple work around for the user (i.e. save it using another name), but I was wondering if there's a method for getting COGNOS not to give these ridiculous file names in the first place?

If it makes any difference, we will shortly be upgrading to version 8.4

Thanks...
