Guys,

I'm having problem with export to Excel.

I'm getting this popup:
The file you are trying to open "xyz.xls", is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?

After clicking on the Yes button file opens normally.
My guess - file has messed up header.

Any ideas?
Thank you!
