when you export chart/table out of qlikview and into excel - how can you change the name of the excel doc created eg rather than the generic chart number & date?

Go to the table/chart properties and in the general tab, give the name of the excel you need in the object ID.
This will export the excel with the name given instead of the default chart id.

		As said in this thread: http://community.qlik.com/thread/96968
The filename is generated as Objectname_YYYYDDMM_hhmmss, so it's not entirely random. If you name your objects in a meaningful way, rather than using the default "CH367" etc., you may not have such a problem in future file recognition.
