Exporting of Advanced Find results to a static excel spreadsheet contains extra columns

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I am experiencing a problem when I perform an export of a Contact Advanced Find result set to a static excel spreadsheet. I have defined the columns I want in my result set, one of which being Full Name, and the result set is displaying correctly on screen. However, when I export to a static excel spreadsheet, three additional columns are being added, these being First Name, Middle Name and Last Name. How can avoid having these columns exported?
