Export to Excel Error

[anon]

Hello ,
I have a web application in which the pages have an "export to Excel"
facility....while this works fine on the development machine, when the
files are transferred to the server, the export to excel gives a Runtime
Error in the application, is there any configuration necessary on the
production server?Please help.
Thanks,
Ben

Hi,

Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current
custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the
application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It
could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server
machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be
viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a
"web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the
current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its
"mode" attribute set to "Off".


this is the text that appears, basically says nothing about why the
error appears......to give u more insight....the export to excel is
designed such that a dialog box appears asking the user to save/open the
report n specify the path...


thanks again for ur replies..

Excel is not installed on the production server, could this be the
reason...
