Hi,

I am using silverlight grid and binding it with a collection of dictionary, Data is actually displayed through a converter into the grid.

But when i export the loaded data in grid to lets say Excel it give me following result:

ID  Name    Number  
System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]    System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]    System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]  
System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]    System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]    System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]  
System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]    System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]    System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]  
System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]    System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]    System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]  
System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]    System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]    System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.Object]  
 

Shouldn't it take the data right from cell and export it to excel. Is it a bug or by design, if by design then what is the actual reason?
Or if we can have an option to export what ever data you see or use column's converter while exporting data.

Thanks,
OM

Hi om,

Exporting with converters is now fixed and later today we will upload our latest internal build.
