export more than 10K events

Hi,

I was trying to export a result with more than 60K events with Excel Export module but no matter how many "Max # of results to export" I set, I always got a xls file with 10K lines. Is it possible to export 10K+ events?

By the way, is there any way I can use this great app on version 4.1?

Thanks.

Version 1.1 of the app allows streaming export of up to 65535 events/results, which is the current row limit per sheet in xlwt.

Update: In version 1.2, which I uploaded a few moments ago, you can export up to 1 million results, with up to 65,000 rows per sheet.

Yes, see my edit above - version 1.1 alleviates this issue up to 65535 results.

The search I was running is just events. I didn't use any transforming command and I put the ExcelExport module in flashtimeline.

I just did another test with a fresh install of version 4.2.4 with ExcelExport module. I searched with the command "index=_internal" and got 41,209 event. Then I export to excel and set "Max # of results to export" to 40,000 but I still got a excel file with 10,000 lines.

Sorry, I didn't explain clear. I was asking if there is any chance to export more than 10K events with Splunk for Excel Export apps.
