| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Default | Either an editor’s value or display text is exported, depending on the editor’s type. For the ImageComboBoxEdit and LookUpEdit controls, their display text is exported. For other editors, their edit values (BaseEdit.EditValue), which sometimes match the display text, are exported. |

| Value | An editor’s edit value is exported. |
Remarks
The following considerations are applied when exporting data to XLS and CSV formats. In default export mode (when the ExportMode property is set to ExportMode.Default), editor values are exported differently, depending on the editor’s type. For the ImageComboBoxEdit and LookUpEdit controls, their display text is exported by default. For other editors, their edit values (BaseEdit.EditValue), which sometimes match the display text, are exported. To change this default logic for a specific editor, set the ExportMode property to the required value.
For a RepositoryItemCheckEdit object, the ExportMode property is ignored. For these editors, values of the RepositoryItemCheckEdit.DisplayValueChecked, RepositoryItemCheckEdit.DisplayValueUnchecked and RepositoryItemCheckEdit.DisplayValueGrayed properties are exported, according to the editor’s current value.
In Data-Aware export mode, display values are exported by default for columns that use lookup and image-combobox editors. You can set the columns’ ExportMode property to Value to export edit values instead of display values.
