Can I save the layout for a table?

I'm using Hyperion Intelligence Explorer 8.3 on Windows XP/SP3.
There is one section of a report I use that I like to convert to an Excel spreadsheet.
I use the Insert Table function. Then layout all the columns from that section.
Then do an Export Section. Which works just fine.
What slows me down is that every time I do this I have to select off all of the columns for the report.
Which takes a while.
What I'm wondering is if there is some way that I can speed up this process.
For example, if I could save the layout once and re-use it for future reports that would be wonderful.
The columns are always the same. But maybe there is an even better way to convert this
section to Excel?
Thanks for any help or suggestions!

Yes, one section of a .bqy file. The entire file has about 20 sections.
I'm usually interested in just one of those sections.
I think it is a results section. How can I check to make sure?
It is a nicely formatted report. With columns and rows. Headers above each column.
Totals on selected columns. It could easily be mistaken for an Excel spreadsheet.
Yes, I would be happy to get all of the columns into Excel. From there it would
be easy to hide/delete the ones I don't need.
I have tried doing a File/Export/Section. Save as type 'Excel (.xls)'.
That processing works without error and builds the .xls file.
But I don't think it is really an .xls file. When I try to open it Excel complains that the
filetype doesn't match the actual contents. When I say OK, the file opens.
It's pretty messy. Some of the data rows are correct. But the column headers are all messed up.
Rather than go left to right the column headers are one after another vertically.
And a column header with two words gets spread over two rows.
So 'First Name' becomes
First
Name
What it actually looks like is some sort of .txt file. But it doesn't seem to have any commas or tabs
that could be used to delimit the fields.
Now when I go through the 'Insert Table' process and then Export that section I do get a 'real' .xls file.
And it is formatted just fine.
Well, I really appreciate the interest and help. Just let me know what I can try and I'll give it a whirl!

  • I can't get the syntax for a table defined function to work.

    Specifically I'm trying to use a table type definition in my function.
    CREATE TYPE "MYSCHEMA"."TT_MYTABLE" AS TABLE (
         "Field" varchar(12)
    CREATE FUNCTION "MYSCHEMA"."MYFUNCTION"()
    RETURNS TABLE ("MYSCHEMA"."TT_MYTABLE")
    LANGUAGE SQLSCRIPT
    All the function examples use an actual field definitions and not an predefined table type.  I've tried the above and a bunch of other variations but I get a syntax error on all of them.
    This is the documentation page;
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_hanaplatform/helpdata/en/20/d42e77751910149f0ff6b879b1290f/content.htm
    They don't show any examples using the table types and I can't seem to make sense of " <datatype> ::= <sql_type> | <table_type>".

    If you read the grammar correctly then I think it is not possible. Table UDF does not allow return table type that refers to another structure type definition but only elementary sql_type
    I think what grammar you refering is from input parameters
    Table Functions must return a table whose type is defined by <return_table_type>. And Scalar Funcitons must return scalar values specified in <return_parameter_list>.
    Defines the output parameters
    <return_table_type> ::= TABLE ( <ret_column_list> )
    Defines the structure of the returned table data.
    <ret_column_list> ::= <ret_column_elem>[{, <ret_column_elem>}...]
    Defines the list of columns returned from the function.
    <ret_column_elem> ::= <column_name> <sql_type>
    <column_name> ::= <identifier>

  • Can not modify the layout for my Default Display Form, inside an issue tracking list. the form will be blank after adding the cusotm styles

    I am working on an Issue Tracking list inside SharePoint 2013. but when a user clicks on an item , the description field will occupy only a small area of the page , while most of the page will be blank as follow:-
    so using F12 Developer Tools on IE i detect the marckup for the Description field as follow:-
    where it is mentioned that it have a Width=350, so i add a Script Editor web part to the displayform and i specify the following to expand the field from 350 to 1000:-
    <style>
    #SPFieldNote
    {width: 1000;
    <style>
    but the result is that the display form will display nothing when clicking on an item as follow:-
    Of course if i remove the ScriptEditor web part the form will be shown again..
    so can anyone advice from where i can force the default display item view to occupy the whole page size ? Thanks

    Hi John,
    Since width is mentioned in 'td' itself, so using styles we can't overwrite the width. For that you can implement javascript or jQuery code to set the width on td element.
    $('#SPFieldNote').width('1000px');

  • How can we do the validation for non visible records in table control.

    I have updated my ipod touch but i have to update iphone and ipad 1 and ipad2 . How can I save the udated software in order to avoid teh time for downloading it again each time

    Even though the downloads are for the same iOS version number, they are different downloads and you can't use an iPod iOS update to update an iPhone or iPad etc. The iPad 1 and iPad 2 are also different downloads. So you will need to download different updates for your iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad 1 and the iPad 2.

  • Can I "save" the content layout per individual folder?

    Depending upon the content within a folder, some folders I prefer to view as a list, while other folders as thumbnails. For example, a folder with all subfolders, I want in a list view. Then when I open up a subfolder, if it contains images, I want to view them as thumbnails. Is there a way to save the layout preference per folder so I'm not constantly having to change my view each time I go to another folder?

  • How can i set a layout for MIGO screen

    Hello all,
    How can i set a layout for MIGO screen. & make that layout default. Like i want to drag Requistioner column next to quantity in MIgo screen. temporarily I can drag but is there a way to save as layout & save it.

    Hi
    First you arrange however you want and then go to table settings which is there in the right corner of the item details and create a variant and save.
    Find a button with blue yellow and white at the top end above the vertical drag bar when put the cursor it will show you as Configuration.
    After creating the variant tick the check box use as standard setting below the variant
    Hope it helps

    Hi RLH,
    No, I've never heard of that issue before.  Was DIAdem working correctly for you at an earlier time?  If so, what changed on the computer from then to now?  Can you export a PDF file or a JPG image from the REPORT File menu?
