Discussion
The "List Control Actions" Action Javascript action can be used to export data from a List control to an Excel or Ascii file. When creating the Action, choose the "Export List data to Excel/Ascii" Action name, and specify the List Control that contains the data that will be exported.
The Export list data settings define the export operation, including the data to export, file format, and actions to perform after the data has been exported.
