Export Link on a table or chart column

Anonymous — Fri, 11 Mar 2016 03:45:19 GMT

I want to have a link "Export" in a column of a chart/table and upon clicking the "Export" link, the data should be exported to csv file. Any help?

Thank you Gysbert Wassenaar for the reply. Is it possible to have a field on the chart to have export action instead of link? For example, if you check the attached jpeg file in my original thread, there is a column "Number Of Sent Messages". If I click on any value on the column, the data should be exported to a excel file. Is that possible?

Thank you "Chanty 4u". I am just wondering to know if we could have a column field in the chart/table to be tied with export action. Please advice.

Maybe, but that gets very messy very soon. You'd have to create a macro and add an Execute Macro action to the OnAnySelect document trigger. Then you'd have to build in all sorts of checks to make sure only the selections you're interested in will actually result in the execution of the macro. And of course the macro will not work in the ajax client.

In the charts We don't have the option to trigger the action we need to use the text or button for the same...and even if you trigger the action using text object or button we need to make use of the macro to capture all the selection and need to manage ..which will be a tedious job
