    <p>I am trying to export a <code>GridView</code> to Excel. </p> <p>I have tried to follow steps found here:</p> <ol> <li><a href="http://www.programming-free.com/2012/09/aspnet-export-grid-view-to-excel.html#.UhUREpK1F9o" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.programming-free.com/2012/09/aspnet-export-grid-view-to-excel.html#.UhUREpK1F9o</a> </li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8094573/export-gridview-to-excel-file">export gridview to excel file</a> </li> </ol> <p>And other similar sites.</p> <p>My <code>GridView</code> does not have any special properties different from default and my <code>SqlDataSource</code> uses <code>filterExpression</code> if that is important.</p> <p>When I try the above mentioned solutions no exception occurs, but the excel is not produced. </p> <p><strong>UPDATE</strong></p> <p>I forgot to mention that the <code>GridView</code> is inside a <code>asp:Content</code> control. I heard this might matter.</p> <p>My code-behind goes something like this ( I have tried multiple things ).</p> <pre><code>Response.Clear(); Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=FileName.xls"); Response.Charset = String.Empty; EnableViewState = false; Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache); Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.xls"; System.IO.StringWriter stringWrite = new System.IO.StringWriter(); System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter htmlWrite = new HtmlTextWriter(stringWrite); GridView3.RenderControl(htmlWrite); Response.Write(stringWrite.ToString()); HttpContext.Current.ApplicationInstance.CompleteRequest(); </code></pre>

    1. COHow are you trying to export it? Show at least the codebehind. Have you used the debugger to see what happens?

    3. COBut this method is called, isn't it? Also, i assume that you have implemented [`VerifyRenderingInServerForm`](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6343630/gridview-must-be-placed-inside-a-form-tag-with-runat-server-even-after-the-gri/6343859#6343859).

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
