when exporting to excel in hopex v1R2

[imranusman]

I tried to export a class created by me, but when exporting and selecting columns it does not display Short Name as column.

The link between the MetaClass and the MetaAttribute 'Name' can be implicit

I suggest you do a test

Create an objet O1

Export the object to a .MGR file

Read the MGR file

Example of MetaClass where the name value is stored in 'Name' --> Short name should not be expected in Excel export

Even Name attribute is not available either.

Hello imranusman

Check the naming configured for this custom MetaClass

The propertty 'Short name' can be expected if there is a specific naming for the MetaClass (ex: Generic Local Name..)

Said differently, if the object name is saved in MetaAttribute 'Name' (default naming), you cannot expect 'Short Name', only 'Name'
