Using export() to export to a .csv or .xls file

M

Michael Loughry

In order to export column headers that I had placed in the
ColumnHeadings.Caption of the web component properly to Excel, I had to write
my custom export button that uses the export() function.

However, when this function is called, it prompts the user to save the fle
to an xml file. While it is true that this xml file can be imported into
Excel perfectly fine, by default it opens in IE. Since our users may not be
that savy to realize this, we were wondering if it were possible to make the
prompt save the file to a .csv or .xls file by default, rather than .xml?
