Hi, I Know this has been asked before and i havent found an answer

but, what workarounds or modifications can be made to tabletools for correctly export a table to excel with multiple rows in the header??

has anyone been able to do this?

thanks in advance

P.S. if this can´t be done, anyone know another way to export this kind of table?

    You'd need to modify the `_fnGetDataTablesData` method in TableTools to get the information from the multiple header rows in the source table. There is no built in option for doing this at the moment.

    Hi jorgegc21,

    Did you succeeded in exporting table with multiple rows in header?
    I'm too facing the same issue from last two-three days and still working on it without any success.

    FYI, it can be done in an alternative way (though not 100% perfect) as below:
