000 are filtered while exporting the data from straight table to excel

[#1]

Hi everyone,

I am using straight table in my application. One of the column in this table contains all the values starting with 000. i.e. values are 000567858,0003434343 something like this. When I use sent to xls option. It exports the table in to xls but the column containing the above values are filtered. It removes the 000 from this column and values for this column are shown as 567858,3434343 etc in the xls.We want to export the whole value (000567858,0003434343) to the xls.

Does anybody know how to do this?

Anyhelp on this will be really appriciated.

Thanks,

Chandan

Convert it to text while loading. Something like below!

LOAD Text(userid) as userid,
 password
;
LOAD * INLINE [
 userid, password
 0034123, 14324
 0012343, 65435
 0054361, 64352
 0075617, 62346
]
;
[\code]

Thanks dsjain,

It is working when we are using send to Excel option. However, we have written a macro which is called on the button. The purpose of this macro to export the data from this straight table to excel file. However, the above fix is not working when we are using macro. For you reference , following is the code of the macro which is used for exporting data from straight table to excel.

sub

CopyToXL

' Set Excel App

set

XLApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

' Define Object

True

'Visible set as true

set

XLDoc = XLApp.Workbooks.Add

'Open new workbook

'--------------------------------

set

XLSheet = XLDoc.Worksheets(1)

' Get Line Chart

set

table = ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("Table1"

)

' Copy table and paste into Excel

set

XLSheet = XLDoc.Worksheets(1)

true

end

sub

Where Table1 is the Object Id of the straight table.

Let me know if you need any other details on this.

Hi Mahajan

I found a way!!! Instead of using copytabletoclipboard.. Use copytext to clipboard.

Copytable to clipboard removes all the formatting applied to the columns.

Copy text to clipboard retains the formatting but the column names will be missed. But you can hardcode the column names and push the data to next row.

Hope it is clear.
