Management Reporter: Formatting the Excel Export

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 30

Two questions regarding how to create settings within Management Reporter so that Excel is formatted in a specific way:

1. Everytime we export from MR to Excel, Excel opens with the 'page layout' view as the default. How can we export and have the 'normal' view as default?

2. We have headers within MR that will export to Excel within the "Header" section, and therefore only visible when viewed in the 'page layout' view. We would like our report to be viewed in the 'normal' view, however the headers within Excel then disappear. Is there anyway for the headers within MR to be shown within the main context of the Excel document? (ie in the rows and columns, not the header section)

Thanks for any help!

    Hi Lisa,

    Unfortunately the answers are:

    1) No;

    2) No.

    The former is already a suggestion on Connect (http://connect,microsoft.com) which you could vote on; the more votes an items gets, the more likely Microsoft are to include it in a future update.
