Devishree Brahmbhatt (OpenERP) (dbr-openerp) has assigned this bug to you for OpenERP Web Client:

Hi,

when I try to export a large amount of records, the export dies when
using Internet Explorer. Investigation reveals that the ids of the
records are encoded in the URL (the so called GET method). URLs in
Internet Explorer are limited in size to 2083 characters. Therefore, the
export button leads to an invalid request with truncated data. The
obvious solution is to transfer the data using the POST method.

I will post a quick and dirty patch for 5.0.15, just in order to
illustrate the problem. Note that the problem exists in V6 as well.

Cheers,
Stefan.
