2010 runtime ribbon

[laffeg]

I want every report to have an Export to Excel option in my 2010 runtime apps

I have created USysRibbons table and copied sample XML code from the web in

The ribbon will show but specifically <button idMso="ExportExcel" size="large"/> does not seem to show ??

Is that because it is only available in forms and not in reports ?

any guidance on how to get it working for reports would be appreciated

If memory serves me correctly, it is available but at one point there was a problem if you didn't have SP2 installed. So, the first step I would take is to make sure that is installed.

Also, is it a part of a Group ID? If so,could you please post that Groups section that this button is a part of?

Hi

Add the attribute Visible = true and see if it works.

<button idMso="ExportExcel" size="large" visible="true"/>
