Hi,

Since sort time we've moved to XLSX export format of all of our grids but found some strange behavior when exporting data with centriage return (and some of this kind of data). Please see the attachment.

I've debugged the data while exporting, and it seems it is still correct without strange 
 html entities.

Known issue?

Kind regards,

Jelle

Hi,

Just found the cause of this issue.
When binding dataset to grid, i'm encoding all data of the first page of the grid to prevent stored XSS attacks. But this encoding is executed while exporting as well. Fixed by me.

Kind regards,

Jelle
