Unknown Excel automation in AL code inside VSCode

cesabo

Hello,

I'm trying to migrate report from version 2018 to BC, but the thing is that Visual Studio Code doesn't support those Excel automations.

I'm struggling with that problem from a while, does anyone have idea how we are supposed to convert reports with export to excel option ?
I guess there must be some kind of workaround or something which I'm missing ?

Here is a screenshot of the problem.





Many thanks !

This probably is a custom report thas has been migrated time after time using automation while std. NAV started using DotNet, but still supported the more and more obsoleted Automations. Now there is no way around it anymore, you'll have to refactor the code in this report to use DotNet. Take a look at Table 370 and other excel related objects, what you need to know is all there.
