Hello There, 

I am trying to export a RadGrid to an excel sheet but I get this error"   Script control 'RadGrid1' is not a registered script control. Script controls must be registered using RegisterScriptControl() before calling RegisterScriptDescriptors().
Parameter name: scriptControl ". However, when I use GridView, it works fine. this is the function to export the Radgrid to excel.

 Response.Clear();
          
            Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=FileName.xls");
            Response.Charset = "";
         // Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
            Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.xls";
         // htmlWrite.WriteLine(header2);
            System.IO.StringWriter stringWrite = new System.IO.StringWriter();
            System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter htmlWrite = new HtmlTextWriter(stringWrite);
            RadGrid1.RenderControl(htmlWrite);
            //GridView1.RenderControl(htmlWrite);
            Response.Write(stringWrite.ToString());
            Response.End();

Thank you so much
Ahsan

Hello Ahsan,

This approach won't work out-of-the-box since RadGrid is a sophisticated control with much more functionality than the standard GridView. That said, the easiest way would be to use the built-in exporting capabilities:
Word/Excel export (HTML-based)
MS Excel/MS Word/CSV
Export to ExcelML
Export to PDF

I'm having problems with the export to Excel from Radgrid in SSL. The grid uses OnNeedDataSource to populate the grid. The export works fine locally, and in Chrome inside our DEV environment (using https), but fails in IE 8 in the same DEV environment. These steps have been followed as previously posted:
1) add the site to your trusted sites list;
2) add the site to your allowed sites in IE's pop-up blocker config;
3) ensure that "do not save encrypted pages to disk" is NOT checked in the Advanced section of Internet Options.


We are using version ASP.NET AJAX Q1 2010 NET35

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Daryl,

I believe I already answered to your support ticket. It is recommended that you use the workaround that is described in our documentation:
Export overview (Export over SSL section)

I hope this helps.
