How to export a report in .xls format

For my current project I have to take existing Crystal Report files and export them into Excel. I cannot use a .csv file, it has to be a .xls file in order to preserve the formatting. Does the Crystal plugin for Eclipse support this feature? I know it can export to .csv but how do I export to .xls? Thanks in Advance, Dave Amundsen

Hi Dave, Unfortunately this feature is not currently supported with the Java engine which ships with Crystal Reports for Eclipse. There is a thread under the Feedback/Enhancement Requests section of the Forum where I would encourage you to add your opinions. You can find the thread here:<a href="/node/642">http://diamond.businessobjects.com/node/642 </a>The only solution I can offer at this time is to look at one of our server solutions (e.g. Crystal Reports Server) if you need formatted Excel exporting with your Crystal Reports files. From what I hear, converting our existing Excel export functionality to a 100% Java environment requires a sizeable development effort, which is why we were not able to get this feature into the initial release of Crystal Reports for Eclipse.If you are interested in more information around our Crystal Reports Server product or wish to download a free trial of the product, check out this link:<a href="http://www.businessobjects.com/products/reporting/crystalreports/server/default.asp">http://www.businessobjects.com/products/reporting/crystalreports/server/default.asp</a> I should also mention that our server solutions do come with a complete Java SDK, which has a very similar object model to the one used by the Java Reporting Component shipped with Crystal Reports for Eclipse.

How to export the report in HTML format for desktop application

Hi,
i have wrote the JRC desktop application to export the report and i am able to export it in PDF and other formats as mentioned in "ReportExportFormat" API.
i would like to know is there any API there which can export the report in HTML format.
i know it would be possible with web based application of JRC, but how can i do it in desktop application?

There's no mechanism for static HTML pages that displays the report.
You can use the CrystalReportViewer DHTML viewer, but that's 'interactive'.
Sincerely,

How to Export SSRS report into Excel format using query string

Hello all,
I am new to SSRS world.
Last night i was trying to add a hyperlink on the SSRS report (.rdl) file, by clicking which we can export the report into "Excel" format, but with no luck.
Can anybody tell me how to form the hyperlink, so that we can export the report with its current content ( I mean the report content generated by selecting some parameter values)

Hi Suman85,
Based on your scenario, you want to add a link on the SSRS report file, and then click it you can export the report into “Excel” format.
Just as kishan1901 said , you can add a textbox to your report and type in the words “Click here and export the report
to excel” .Then right-click the textbox and select Properties. Switch to Navigation tab, click the radiobutton of ‘Jump to URL’ and type in the expression ,here is just a example:
="http://vyof1884200/ReportServer$youhoo?/My+Adventure+Works/Product+Sales+and+Profitability+by+Month&rs:Command=Render&rs:Format=excel"
Then preview the report ,you will see
Click here and export the report to excel
when you move the mouse to it ,the mouse will become a hand ,then left-click, it will jump out a dialog box to indicate user whether the excel file should be saved , opened or canceled.
I think this is what you want, if you have any further requirement, could you please describe it in more detail? We would give you some resolution or workaround.

How to Export BAM reports to other platform

Hi Snehal,
Use the Excel View Widgets in BAM Studio.
About Excel View
The Excel spreadsheet view displays columns containing rows of data in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. This view enables you to save the content externally (outside of the Oracle BAM applications) in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.
The Excel view requires that Microsoft Excel version XP, 2003, or 2007 is installed on the client computer.

Export a report as JPEG format

Hi,
From the Reporting Services 2005 Documentation, it mentions that a report can be rendered as a JPEG format. Here is a quote from the aritcle:
"The Image rendering extension renders a report to a bitmap or metafile. By default, the Image rendering extension produces a TIFF file of the report, which can be viewed in multiple pages. When the client receives the image, it can be displayed in an image viewer and printed.
The Image rendering extension can generate files in any of the formats supported by GDI+: BMP, EMF, GIF, JPEG, PNG, and TIFF. For TIFF format, the file name of the primary stream is ReportName.tif. For all other formats, which render as a single page per file, the file name is ReportName_Page.ext where .ext is the file extension for the chosen format."
But I only see TIFF to be the only available image format in the Render format drop down list.
Could somebody please tell me how to export a report in JPEG format?
Thank you in advance.

The image format is controlled via the deviceinfo setting on the renderer. There is no way to set this from the UI. It can only be done programatically or by direct url access.
However, you can specify default deviceinfo settings in the config file. So you could add another instance of the image renderer with a default to jpg. Add the following code to rsreportserver.config under Configuration/Extensions/Render:
 <Extension Name="JPG" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ImageRenderer.ImageReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ImageRendering">
 <OverrideNames>
 <Name Language="en-us">JPG</Name>
 </OverrideNames>
 <Configuration>
 <DeviceInfo>
 <OutputFormat>JPEG</OutputFormat>
 </DeviceInfo>
 </Configuration>
 </Extension>

Problems in exporting crystal report to word format

Hi All,
I am getting trouble in exporting crystal report to word formats.
Here are my questions:
1) The exported word file will have a text "R..950" added on top right hand corner, How to get rid of it?
2) For those "Can Grow" fields, it can show multiple line data correctly in the viewer. However, the text box in exported word file will be too small to show all the content and lower half of the text is cut.
Thanks and Regards,
Cherry

Hi Asha,
Thanks for reply.
The version of crystal report designer and viewer which I am using is version 11 Release 2.
Besides, I guess it might relate to the format of report so I would like to tell you more.
Font Face: Arial Unicode MS (in order to show chinese characters)
Font Size: 9 pt
For the text "R..950" issue, I just found that some people in the internet having the same issue and they suggested that may relate to the locate. In my case, the locate is Chinese (Hong Kong S.A.R.).
If it is necessary, I may send you my report with sample for test.
Regards,
Cherry

Issue while exporting the report to other formats

When the rpt file created in the BO server is used to view the report through the report viewer, there are export options available to choose from. If this export option is tried as MSExcel or Word document, the alignment, page headers and all are not coming in the same way like in the one generated through the PDF.

Hi aparmar,
Which version of the Crystal Report and Business Objects you are using?
Which SDK's you are using in your application to export the report to RTF format?
Also if you are using JRC in your application, you can follow the given link:
Font size in exported report
I hope the above link might be helpful.
Please revert if you need any other information.

Issues in exporting SSRS report to PDF format in Report Server - Blank spaces are deleted

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem in exporting SSRS report to PDF format. It deletes all the blank spaces when I use bullet in a Text box and try to export to PDF formt in Report Server . For example
• Project submitted to the TRC
Result in PDF format:
• ProjectsubmittedtotheTRC
I also noted that when I try to export to PDF in Visual Stuio 2005 (Business Intelligence development studio), it does not delete any blank spaces and shows the correct aligned Data in PDF format.
Please help me as it is frustrating a lot
I would highly appreciate for your quick response

Was there ever a solution found for this as i have the same issue.
When bullet point is entered in a field all the spaces are removed when exported to PDF
i tried exporting to excel and it does not remove spaces, however this is no use to me as it needs to be in PDF
Using IE 7 (Don't think the browser has anything to do with it as this happened via a subscription)
Didn't know SSRS had specific Service Packs, i though they came as patches to SQL Server (SQL Server is on Service Pack 3)
This should be easy to replicate all you need to do is copy text containing a bullet point into a sql server database field and then add this field to a report export to pdf and the spaces are gone
Thanks in advance,
Mark Brunton
