Hi,

How do I add an "Export" button on the result window in my "form" in each panel ?

After getting the result If I want to Export the data, I have to go to "view Result" , instead I want that "Export" button be available in the form itself

Please help me out regarding this...

Abhayneilam - have you tried using ResultsActionButtons in your dashboard? It doesn't require any special parameteres, and should bring in your buttons (save and print as well).

Abhayneilam - good, that's progress. The manual suggests that there are no required params, and just 2 options. It depends what you need? Per the notes above it is clear that it will also do save, print and share as well as export.
Knowing your prev q's on drop-downs, the editView option yields a an edit link to start an 'editing' view in a popup window for a saved search or report.
Another optional param eventsView offers the user a 'view events' link to see returned events and to run a part of the search before any transforms.
The ref is p219 of the Developer manual for more.

A. Export per jonuwz's answer also has a good following in Sideview, which I think you are considering, or Ayn directed you towards recently?
