Export excel makes dropdown boxes disappear

$

Hello,

I'm using stata to export a list of around 5,000 health facilities to a pre-formatted excel workbook. The stata export is a sort of 'data' tab for the rest of the workbook. There are four other tabs that generate different calculations based on what is in the data tab.

On the final sheet where the results are displayed, I have some dropdown boxes for the user to manipulate that I created in excel's 'data validation' functionality. Strangely, after executing the 'export excel' function in stata, the dropdown boxes disappear in the resulting excel file.

My command is:

export excel id country siteid sitename sitelevel activationyr avg y2011-y2015 ///
disc yearssince using "global ue caseload model v6.xlsx", sheet("STEP 1_UE caseload data") firstrow(variables) sheetmodify

I've also tried using sheetreplace and sheet("STEP 1_UE caseload data", modify)

​Any help is most appreciated.

I'm using Stata/SE 14.0 for Windows (64 bit) and excel 2013
