Correction: OS/2 should not have been on my list of "non-MS" operating systems. :)

IOS? Android? Linux? Unix? CP/M? OS/2? Paul H.

My mouse cut half the message as I hit Send: Not Fox, though Fox makes perfectly good HTML so it could have been: A client uses a web application of mine to run a set of HTML reports. Right-clicking on the resulting table gives her an "Export to Excel" option that pops the table up in Excel. It has "stopped working" so she calls me up and complains, It turns out the Export functionality was an IE feature, which apparently MS chose not to duplicate in Edge, the new replacement browser with the big blue E for an icon. Clients don't know the difference, only that my software doesn't work. Microsoft giveth and Microsoft taketh away again. *sigh* Not the first time,... I suppose I can work up a feature to duplicate all the functionality by exporting all the data to SpreadsheetML when requested, but I wondered if anyone had run into this and knew of a workaround. BTW, this is a non-MS application, so using a Web Component or similar unholy solution is pretty much out of scope. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
