Grid Export – Custom Header Labels above data

[sgarcoParticipant]

Hi,

Is it possible to add custom header text ABOVE the actual data and grid headers in the excel file that is created using the Grid export ?

I have looked at the Grid API and the params on the exportdata method and there does not ‘seem’ to be a way to do this other than maybe trying the custom array for the fourth param to determine the rows. However, my need is to have a custom header label in the excel file ABOVE the grid header and data. So, in the Excel file, row 1 would say something like “As of Feb 22, 2016” and then underneath that in row 2 or 3 would be the actual Grid header text and then under that would be the actual Grid data.

Thanks in advance for any help

Hi sgarco,

Unfortunately this is not possible.

Hi Ivailo,

Thank you for your reply.

If we use our own URL (instead of the default JQWidget export server), I would assume we would have more control over the export format, correct ?

Is there an example showing what the grid exportdata method passes to a custom URL and how to go down that road ? I know the actual server code would be up to us, but, just looking for an example of what is passed to the server and how to approach handling that in our server code if we use a custom URL for export.

Thank you !

Hi sgarco,

Unfortunately we don’t have such a example.
