Re: Export to CSV using Helper, resulting error
I just had a similar problem and post here: http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/f9d8203a3acb0e8f#. I solved the issue a few hours ago using this approach: http://www.dnamique.com/cakephp-export-data-to-excel-the-easy-way/. No helper needed. It was done in 15 minutes. I could not believe it. I was even able to access the action in CakePHP from a button on an ExtJS grid. I would highly recommend taking a look at this approach. It is the simplest approach I have found, and a very clear explanation. Hopefully it helps...

Re: Export to CSV using Helper, resulting error
The problem with this approach is that Excel tries to parse certain values. Just to mention one example: 1-10 will be converted to 01. Oct. I prefer the following approach from the bakery: http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/excel-xls-helper Markus Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://cakeqs.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
