Skipping Report Header Content in CSV Export

Environment

Product	Progress® Telerik® Reporting
Rendering Format	CSV

Description

I want to exclude the dynamic content of the Report Header/Footer Section from appearing in the CSV export of a report in Telerik Reporting.

Despite using the NoStaticText = true CSV device info setting, dynamic content from the report header section still appears in the CSV export.

Solution

To exclude dynamic content from the reportHeaderSection in CSV export, use one of the following methods:

Method 1: Use Value Bindings

1. Configure the NoStaticText = true CSV device info setting.
2. For each TextBox in the reportHeaderSection, avoid direct expressions in the Value property.
3. Instead, use bindings for the Value property. For example:

Method 2: Use Curly Braces in Expressions

Replace the = symbol at the beginning of expressions with curly braces {}, or in other words - embedded expressions. For example: Hi Mr. {Fields.LastName}, {Fields.FirstName}!.
