SYMPTOMS

You export objects in AxCMS.net (e.g. Users) in CSV format:

And you get after long waiting all the data just shown in a popup-window and not saved as a file.

CAUSES

CSV-Export is configured this way.

SOLUTION

Configure the export to open a Save Dialog. For this you need to open web.config of the Management System and add SaveDialog=true option as shown here for the corresponding type:

 <ExportDefinitions>
   …
  <Xslt Type="Axinom.AECMS.UserManagement.AxUser"
     MimeType="text/plain"
     FileName="admin/ExportDefinitions/UsersToCsv.xslt"
     AxID="AxUsersToCsv"
        SaveDialog="true"
        Extension=".csv"
     Description="CSV" />

MORE INFORMATION:

As you see above, you can also configure the default file extension (.csv) and the name of the format shown in the export drop down in MS (“CSV”).
