Dear Sirs,
I have a database with about 20 fields in it. I want to display 10 in a table that can be filtered, but when I export to CSV or Excel, I want to export all 20 fields. I can see that I can add the fields to the table and then select them as hidden, but I cannot seem to export them as well as the viewed columns. Is there a way around this?
Kind regards,
Ian

Dear Sirs,
Having looked into my issue this afternoon, I think the Report Builder add on will solve my issue. I create a table with all 20 fields I want in my report and then I configure the report as I require it. I then hide the 10 fields that I don't want displayed on the front end. In my head that means that the front end displays the 10 fields I want, but the report can pull out all 20 fields. Please can you confirm that my thought process is correct here.
Kind regards,
Ian
