Hello,
I have a Telerik Radgrid with Export to Excel, CSV and Word buttons on it. Since I am exporting huge amounts of data it takes some time for the Save pop up to display. Is there any way to specify the user that some background work is going on in order to prepare the excel or csv during that particular period of time.

I have gone through the following post, but I could not get an ideal solution.

Could you suggest me any alternative such as the mouse icon turning to an hour glass or a loading panel getting displayed during the time etc?

Thanks,
M N V Koundinya

Hello M N V Koundinya,

An alternative option would be to store the exported file on the server and provide a download link to the users. You can find a sample project demonstrating this attached to this message. This approach reduces the server load and is customizable - for example, you can cache different files for different user groups and update the stored file after some time is passed.
