Macro not running in access point

Hi all,

From the community I recently took a macro which exports graphs as image and tables as excel data in to Excel sheets. I am calling that macro on a button click. The macro is running in the local machine  but from access point it is not working.

options I used:

From Desktop:

I enabled allow system access mode in tools -> edit module

and in server -> System->Securitymacro.jpg

Is there anything I am missing. Also the server doesn't contain Msoffice.

Thanks

Does macros execute only using IE plugin, thats what I understood, if so how to change from Ajax plugin to IE plugin,

No, there are macros that run in ajax as well. But yes, some of them do not. Plug in has to be installed in the client system. Plugin exe can be found in the server and you should see a doownload link in the accesspoint. If you don't see, ask your qv admin to enable the download link (setup in qmc).

Hi Tresco,

Can we run a macro which creates a excel file as a result, in both the plugin i.e. Ajax and as well as IE plugin.

Thanks

Hi do not think that is possible.

I have used this functionality and it works only in IE plugin.

All,

I downloaded the IE plugin in my system and installed it, and try to open the qvw file from access point using Internet Explorer Plugin which is displayed in the expand view in list view in access point but I am getting an error.

I changed the plugin to IE Plugin in QMC also.

Thanks

Ajax supports few basic ; server-side macros. And seems, the one you need unfortunately won't work.
