I have a table like below.

Name : EVENT
---------

EVID EVENT
----- ------
1 NEW YEAR DAY
2 CHRISTMAS
3 EASTER


I need to represent this in a report in the following manner upto nth Event.

EVENT1 EVENT2 EVENT3 ...... EVENN
---------------------------------------------------------
NEW YEAR DAY CHRISTMAS EASTER Nth EVENT


I am using a Repeating Frame in the 'Across' order to do this.

My problem is that i need to port this report exactly the same way to a Excel sheet, i.e. in the Report i am displaying the rows in column order using a Repeating Frame in 'Page Across' order.

If i port this report to Excel will it come row wise in the Excel sheet or column wise. I want the rows in column wise in Excel sheet also as displayed above.

How can i port this report to an MS-Excel sheet by keeping the same order ?

If any one knows the solution please help, as it is very urgent.

I am using Oracle 8.0 Database and Reports 2.5, as my client is not willing to upgrade. So i need to work on the same platform.

Thanks and Regards,

Nirmal.

Hi,

For exporting ur report data into excel u need to use different
printer file .

copy this code in notepad and save it as .prt file
/*****************/

printer "Excel"

height 5000
width 5000

code "500" control(I)
code "600" control(J)

/*****************/

and assign that printer file to desformat,
also u need to align the layout columns to fit to grid,
the first column u need to set printercodes as &500 and the last
column as &600.
