Title: Exporting to Excel in Edit Mode does not bring up Prompt Page
Post by: dpccgf on 09 Aug 2017 06:06:22 PM
When creating a report the developer runs it to HTML and the prompt page comes up, but if they want to run it to Excel, Excel Data or CSV the prompt page does come up.  When you run the report outside of Edit Mode it works fine.  Or it appears to work fine.  Anyone having a similar problem?​  I am on 11.0.6.  Thanks in advance for any help!

We have the same problem when the user runs the report and selects Excel as the report output. The prompt page doesn't come up and they get all data back instead of applying the filters.

It's a known issue APAR PI81214.
