Reference > Toolbars Reference > Report window toolbars > Report window toolbar: Export submenu

The Export submenu offers commands for saving a copy of the report as a Microsoft Excel file.

These commands give you a way to save an exact copy of the report as it currently exists, complete with any editing changes you may have made. You may load the exported report into Microsoft Excel or a compatible spreadsheet program for viewing, printing, or further editing.

Export submenu options:

As Excel file, load in Excel...

Allows you to select a file name and folder in which to save a copy of the report as a Microsoft Excel file, then saves the file to disk, and finally, starts Microsoft Excel and loads the file there.

This command requires Microsoft Excel 97 or later. If the Excel program is not present on your computer, a copy of the report will still be saved—but Excel won't be started, of course!

As Excel file...

Allows you to select a file name and folder in which to save a copy of the report as a Microsoft Excel file, then saves the file to disk.
