No seperate worksheets on Exporting to Excel

I am exporting an Report with page breaks to excel. The challenge is that on export the records should appear in a single worksheet and not in multiple worksheet, which are created due to page breaks.

Thanks, Amit

No seperate worksheets on Exporting to Excel

    When rendering to Excel, page breaks always result in new worksheet tabs. There is no way to force a page break within one worksheet.

    You could use SoftArtisans OfficeWriter to do this. With this, you would define the page breaks in the Excel template file and they would be preserved when rendering to Excel:

    Hello,

    In my opinion, ignoring page breaks when exporting to Excel would be a very useful rendering option. In our organisation, usually, PDF is used for distribution of the report as is. Excel is used a lot for analysing a bit further, and the page breaks that turn into different tabs are a big pain. I hope this option will be available in the next SP, because there seems to be no workaround except for removing the page break from the report or buying some third party tool...

    Thnx!
