But as you have the leverage to build extensions, I am quite sure it can be done, if you can build a custom text box which has a functionality to export it to a .txt file format.(Only if its a mandatory requirement)</P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 16 Jan 2016 21:55:37 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/App-Development/Export-text-object-to-txt-file/m-p/1012742#M15004 reddy-s 2016-01-16T21:55:37Z Re: Export text object to .txt file https://community.qlik.com/t5/App-Development/Export-text-object-to-txt-file/m-p/1012743#M15005 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><BLOCKQUOTE><TABLE border="1"><TBODY><TR><TD> <P>Arthur Lankester wrote:</P> <P></P> <P>generate a custom and dynamic management summary</P> </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></BLOCKQUOTE><P>You mean... you need what they bought QlikView for?
