Manipulating excel files name for 'send to excel' option

I want to have just the caption of QV object as the name of the excel file that is generated by Qlkiview after using 'send to excel' option.Currently QV generates the file name as -

object ID_Date_some QV generated number.xls

I can change the object ID to the caption of that object but I have to hard-code it and my caption's are expressions that depend/change on selections.I also want to get rid of Date and QV generated number that QV appends to object ID for file name.Has any one come across such requirement? Is there any workaround?

Thanks.

Hello

Someone has the answer to this question? I need that the exported excel file (with the XL button) has a fixed custom name. Is there a way to accomplish that?

Hi,

I have the same problem.

I would like to export an excel file with a specific name as year and month (YYYY-MM).

Does anyone know how to accomplish that ?
