Data to Excel to send Text Fields and Expressions to Excel

Sage support advised on an issue I had where the customer was sending details to Excel via Data to Excel - where text fields and Expressions didn't show on the output: When using the 'Data to Excel' option, any expression created using multiple fields will not export but will using Report to Excel. Data to excel exports the live variable information directly from the database. As the expression is not within the live database, this is why it does not appear. can this be something that is included in some way, please?
