I have a report that I created and I am wondering if there is a way to
export this easily into Excel?

Thanks,

Click to expand...

With your report displayed in Preview, (or simply select the report on
the Main Database folder) click on the Office Links tool button (it's
icon is a W) drop-down arrow and select Analyze it with Microsoft
Excel. The Excel file will be placed in the My Documents folder.
 
Thanks Fred!! That was easy!!

Thanks,

My report has a memo field. When I send the report to Excel, everything in
this field does not go to Excel, only a portion of it. Has this ever
happened to anyone else and how can I fix it?

Those resolutions did not work. I have a button that we use to email the
report. The options to email include Excel 2003 format, but when opening
that Excel file, the memo field is still cut short of all the text.

Thanks,

Chad
 
Hello Chad,


Selecting "Excel 2003 format" when exporting the report does not solve the
problem because Access still uses old version format in the background.

Since it's actually a product limitation, as discussed in KB 294286, we
have to export the table/query the report based on or use some tricky
method such as trim the split/reassemble strings by code.

Another workaround might be export the report to CSV or HTML file type.

If you have any further concerns or comments, please feel free to let's
know. Thank you.
