  • 1.  Ok button not clickable when exporting multiple tables

    Posted 04-02-2023 11:57

    Hi

    I am trying to export two tables using the export function. If I select only one, everything works fine, if I select both, everything looks ok, but when I enter the path where it is supposed to be saved, the OK button becomes unclickable.

    Has anyone else experienced this problem?

    Thank you for your time

    Can you share a screen dump of the Export dialog?
    Maybe that could give us a clue

    Thanks

    I'm sorry for the late reply. Here's a screen recording of the problem.

    Hi Paolo

    I'm not quite sure why the OK button gets disabled. I can only make it disabled if the path I specify doesn't exist. And the weird thing is that the dialog doesn't state what the problem is.


    Can you make it work if you paste the path into the Output Folder field instead of selecting the path with the Browse button?

    When you see the Export Table(s) to File(s) initially, there is a red text under the Output Folder field. What does that translate to?

    Hi Peter

    Can you make it work if you paste the path into the Output Folder field instead of selecting the path with the Browse button?

    Same result, button gets disabled.

    When you see the Export Table(s) to File(s) initially, there is a red text under the Output Folder field. What does that translate to?

    When I open de export dialog, the path points to a non existing path (that's what the red text says). 

    Could it be that this sets some sort of flag that that causes the button to get disabled later? I will recreate that path and see what happens.

    Thank you for your help

    So I recreated the path the export dialog suggest when I open it. When I launched it again, it detected that the path does exist and then I changed the path to something else. It works fine now. 

    I think that when you open the export dialog, if the suggested path doesn't exist, some kind of bug is triggered. I could reproduce it by deleting the folders where the last export was made, so when the export dialog is opened again it shows the red sign. Then if I change the path, the OK button gets disabled.

    Thanks, Paolo.
    I have raised this with our support team. I put you on cc

    It seems the dialog change the state of the OKButton to the opposite but had the wrong setting from the beginning.

    I tried adding a single character to the path which would show the description that the path doesn't exist but enable the OKButton. If I at this point hit the OKButton, the files seem to be created in the right place.
