Hi,
One of my clients has a strange problem with my webapplication which I think may be related to some firewall setting on his computer.
On several screens in the application, it is possible to click on an icon to start an export of data to Excel.
The click on the icon triggers a form submit (a post, not a get) to a blank page, thereby passing the SQL select statement to use for the Excel export.
I've never had any problem reports about this Excel export feature, but now one of my clients claims that the export doesn't work for him on his computer.
He gets an error that indicates that the SQL query is somehow not passed to the blank page.
He has tried the same thing on another computer as well, and then there is no problem whatsoever.
Can this issue indeed be related to some firewall setting on his own computer?
And if so, what would he have to do to prevent this problem?
And if not, what else could be the cause of this Excel export problem?
Regards,
