How to RESET Export to Excel Settings:

Method 1: While in the ALV screen, right click on anywhere inside the ALV grid. If it is an ALV list right click on the blue part. Click spreadsheet. The non-defaulted selection box returns. But the default box may still be marked, dont forget to unmark it. Then you will have the default Export popup again. Method 2: While in an ALV screen, enter &reset_excelwithout quotes into the command box. This will reset the Export Popup to default settings. Method 3: SALV_BS_ADMIN_MAINTAIN seems to be the most reliable solution. I think it's also the most painful and not something that I want to tell users as there are transactions involved in this. Only if the above two methods didnt work try this. The following steps should be performed: - Call transaction SE38, enter program SALV_BS_ADMIN_MAINTAIN, and press F8. - Follow the parameters below: - Select DELETE on the Actions Group - Select DETAILED SELECTION on the General Data: - On Client - your client number - User : <user name> - Hit on EXECUTE. - Press ENTER on the POPUP - If there is an entry in the report that will need to be deleted. Also, make sure that the entry you will delete (for the user) has a value of GUI_ALV_XML_VER on the field Parameter. - Select the line and hit the DELETE icon. - Press Y to continue delete. Press ENTER on the popup. - Then EXIT all the way out of the program. NOTE: When you run program SALV_BS_ADMIN_MAINTAIN, make sure they are out of any program that they are using for download.
