Upgraded to QV 12.20 but still cannot export to .xlsx format

We have saved our QVW files in version 12.20 and when we export the files, they are still in .xls format. Is there something needed to be able to have the files export in .xslx?

I have checked the Document Support Info and see these two variables:

Document File Format               6000 (6000)

Saved in Version                   12.20.20200.0

Doesn't this mean that my QVW is in the latest version?

Dear David,

Just a question, the problem is regarding the file format ou data format?

I've tested with multiple files - old and new, opened regularly or via server - and all of them export to xlsx correctly from both chart objects and table objects. Using QlikView November 2017 (12.20) SR3 client running over an older-version server.

Note that if your server is still running an older version, exports made via the AJAX client will still export in xls - this is determined server-side.

Are you exporting from QlikView Desktop or the browser client?

Exporting from an online portal. Not QlikTech, but a 3rd party portal. Is the export option controlled form QV or the portal?

Hard to say without understanding what the 3rd party portal encompasses. Have you raised this issue with the portal provider?

Yes, but they are not responding, sad to say.
