I have an Excel report where I use a data table and in the header I put a placeholder which contains the call to a function which is defined in the helper of the report itself.
Up to version 4.10, that worked perfectly, sinche the function call returned a string, and that string appeared in the table header as expected.
Now I am using versione 4.13 and whenever I try to launch this report, it produces a corrupted file, which Excel has to repair before opening it, while if I try to run the report from the jsReport studio, it does not manage to produce a valid Excel file.
I have tried to act in the template by using xlsxReplace to replace the value on the fly before rendering, but this does not work. It does not work either if I try to put the value in the shared strings replacing the fixed string value I put in the Excel template.

Any clue?

Thanks

if you have a template that worked fine in 4.10 but broke in 4.13 please share the full template so we can fix it.

was this part of the original template in 4.10? or is it a workaround for your template in 4.13?

if this is just a workaround for 4.13, lets focus on fixing the original template so you dont need this.

you can also email me the zip at bjrmatos@gmail.com in case the upload does not work again.
