Re: Downloading Long Indicator/Data Element names from Pivot Tables

 

Version: 2.22
Build revision: 21868

Hello Lars, et al,

We have a version of 2.22 that we've been testing. I just ran a pivot table
in 2.22 to test the download of long indicator and data element names and
it's still not working. The screenshots below show a snapshot of a Pivot
table showing long data element names (top) and a snippet of the downloaded
Excel sheet in table layout form still showing data element short names
(bottom.) What am I missing?

*Note*: my user settings for *Property to display in analysis modules *is
set to *Name*

Thanks!
