[Solved] Allow visitor to choose excel or pdf output

[Clive Hoggar]

Hi

I have successfully set up a grid export to Excel, but now I want to allow visitors to select alternative format
by clicking different buttons  - excel or pdf. 

Can you give me some tips on how to approach this, bearing in mind that the style/formatting needs
of each type are so different?

Is there a demo/barebones example which shows this multiple choice (including pdf)?

Thanks

Clive

Hi Clive,

One suggestion would be declaring a global variable for specifying the export type and check for type in ItemCreated event for applying different styles. Similar scenario is shown in "RadGrid formatting and PDF export" section of following documentation
Exporting tips and tricks

Also checkout the demo: MS Excel/MS Word/CSV

Thanks,
Princy.
