Hi,

 There appears to be a big bug in the Export functions (use any, client, server and any type).  Using the webUI samples for 2009 R1 SP1 run the sample "ProgrammaticExportServerSide", select the "Export Grid" button in the Grid tray, select Excel and view the Excel listing.  Now take TEXT and export.  Compare the 2 outputs and they are not the same!  Excel has extra records with only an address field with all other columns blank.  Then look at the Text notice that some records have portion of the text that belongs to other columns in the record above.  I have attached 2 samples, Excel and Text of the Northwind export.  You can run the Client Side script on the ProgrammaticExportClientSide, running it first for Excel and then Text and notice the same problems.

As an example:  Here is the Excell export 
VINET	Vins et alcools Chevalier	Paul Henriot	Accounting Manager	59 rue de l'Abbaye	Reims		51100	France	26.47.15.10	26.47.15.11

Here is the Text export:

VINET,Vins et alcools ,Paul Henriot,Accounting Manager,59 rue de l'Abbaye,Reims, ,51100,France,26.47.15.10,26.47.15.11

You can change the file extension of the text file to csv and open it in Excel and then compare the 2 sheets and there are big differences.
