Administration rights issue to export data to excel

[jignesh90330]

With my stand alone labview application, moving data from application into excel using report generation toolkit required administration right in windows 8 or Higher version OR in MS Office 2013 or Higher version. Without administrative right it will not log data in excel file. Is there any solution to log data without administrative rights ?

You can write data to a delimited text file (that excel can open), you can log data to a database.

Or you can just run your executable as administrator.

You shouldn't need admin rights.  Can you give us a little more detail on exactly what you are doing with Excel?  Are you opening an Excel template that gets saved after the data has been added?

If you're trying to save the Excel file in the c:\program files directory you will need administrative rights. If the case save to a different location.

If you show us the code (attach a VI, not a picture of a VI, please), we can probably at least explain why this is happening, and can probably suggest a fix.  You should not need Admin rights to use the RGT nor to write an Excel file (unless you are writing in some "protected" folder).

In some Windows 8 System with MS office 2013, labview application needs admin right to copy data into excel file. without admin right only excel template was create and no data will copy to excel, but when we open application with admin right it is works fine and copy all data with formating too.

Actually excel data are formated report so we cannot use delimited text file and End user have problem with admin right issue.

[JIG_K]

Actually problem occures before saving the excel, we just create blank template from RGT and copy data with formating.

This issue is not come with all systems, some specific system has only issue to copy data. others was works fine so I need a solution to give a admin right of application at the time of installation or by any ways that it opens only with admin right.

Again, without seeing the code that doesn't work for you, it is basically impossible to suggest a fix.  Attach your VI and you stand a much better chance of getting an answer.
