Hi ,

When i'm trying to export the data as "MICROSOFT EXCEL (97-2003) DATA ONLY FORMAT" through crystal report it displays columns with collapsing data. Manually i need to expanded all columns to see the full data.

I need the columns, without collapsing the data while opening itself.

For example : Header name is DESCRIPTION , then it displays as Descr, Rest are hiding (next column header override), if i manually expand then it displays as DESCRPTION. Got it?

Thanks

What do you mean by collapsing?

Yes, I don't think you can control the width of the column. The user can change it.

No way to set the Width for the columns? Or No way for Automatic column Alignment ?

I am not familiar with doing either when exporting through crystal. But I would search Google for "column width" instead of "collapse". You may get some hits that way.

I have right clicked on Report Main Report Preview and clicked EXPORT, it open a POP UP called EXPORT, then i have selected "MICROSOFT EXCEL (97-2003) DATA ONLY FORMAT" , then click OK. It displays some "Excel Format Option" in the new Pop Screen, then i have checked "MAINTAIN COLUMN ALIGHNMENT" , but when i click OK it asks one EXCEL Sheet to Export. Then i have referring one excel same like previous(Collapsed Header Excel), then click OK. It shows the error as "THE STRING IS NON NUMERIC".

The report shows same as previous display. No changes happened. How can i make these changes (checked the "MAINTAIN COLUMN ALIGHNMENT") into my report?
