  • What causes this issue?

    An attempt was made to transfer a list object to the front-end computer
    and to load there into the local XXL list viewer.

    System Response

    The local list viewer is not ready for operation. This may be because
    the front-end computer does not run under MS Windows, because MC Excel
    is not available or because the local installation of the list viewer
    is faulty.

    How to fix this error?

    Check the installation of the XXL mechanism on your PC.
    You may need to export the list object later from a different PC. Until
    then you could store it in SAPoffice under a name of your choice (not,
    however, possible for all R/3 applications).
