Excel Download Problem:

Hi Experts,

I am working on an application in which we are downloading an excel file.

We are accessing this application using internet link.

The current internet explorer settings are :Tools-> Internet options->Security->Custom Level->Automatic Prompting for File download->enable. With this IE setting the file is getting downloaded perfectly.

But when i change the IE settings to : Tools-> Internet options->Security->Custom Level->Automatic Prompting for File download->Disable. When I try to download the file, a download file pop up appears. I click on on pop up and then on download the file. Notthing happens for a some time and after that the application times out and the file did not get downloaded and 'Page cannot be displayed' message is displayed. It only happens when the no. of records are large. For less no. of records, its working fine.

Kindly let me know how can I resolve this problem.

Regards

Arjun

Hi Arjun ,

The Solution to your problem could be resolved by the following ways:

1. Use a logical destination and increase the time out time

2. Make some modification to your service to retrieve only some limited about of data.

Hi Piyas,

I have some doubts:

1. Which parameter needs to be changed to increase the time out time

2. We have to make our application work for huge data also, we can' limit the data size.

Thanks,

Nikhil
