This online demo demonstrates the export to Excel feature of the RadTreeList.
The approach is very straightforward - to export the treelist content to Excel format, simply use the ExportToExcel() server-side method. You can configure the exporting settings for the treelist through the RadTreeList.ExportSettings section. Note that the styles applied in the ExportSettings are with bigger priority than the inline styles set for the TreeList. Therefore the exported file will use the styles form the ExportSettings section.

In this demo you could also see the new TreeList CommandItem for built in export buttons
