How to use column Title(s) in exportSelectedToExcel headers

[Scot]

When I export to Excel using the Export to Excel button in a kendo grid, the Excel file generated has the grid column titles as the Excel column headers.  Which is what I want.

When I export to Excel using the grid.exportSelectedToExcel(true), the generated file has the grid column fields as the Excel column headers.  I don't want the field names exposed.  How to prevent or change this?  Thank you.

Code:



Results for each type of export.  The top part of the image is the desired result.
