Getting "Export to Excel" to display in a context menu.
Hi
Maybe it is the version of IE that is the cause? -- Andy. "John Vaccaro" wrote in message ... We have a software package that uses a web control that customer orders are inserted into in the form of a table. Some of our office PC's display an Export to Excel menu item in the context menu of the web control, while others do not. We use versions of Office from 97 to 2003 and this is consistant across the different versions. We are trying to place instructions in our software's help file on how to get the Export to Excel context menu item to display so our customers can set it up themselves. I have spent close to two days going over the Excel help file and the Office web site and Knowledge Base with no luck. I have tried going back through a few months worth of postings on the newsgroups and did not find anyone else with this question. We looked at the possibility that it could be an Internet Explorer setting, but that did not turn up anything positive. We also thought that it may be the way Office is installed (Standard installation vs Customized) and that hasn't turned up anything either. I thought I would try posting before I ask for approval to call Micro$oft for a support call. Any help on this would greatly be appreciated. Thanks John |

Doesn't matter about the IE version. The problem is true if using IE 5.x or
6.x. John "Andy B" wrote in message ... Hi Maybe it is the version of IE that is the cause? -- Andy. "John Vaccaro" wrote in message ...
