Export object to excel /text file macro trigger on a field selection?

[#1]

Hi,

     Any one know how to write a macro to export the object to excel or text file for Field trigger?I want to keep on exporting the data to same excel/text file created for any selection.I don't want to replace the file whenever different values in the field are selected.

Hi,

This is the macro:

sub CopyToXL2

set XLApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

XLApp.Visible = FALSE

set XLDoc = XLApp.Workbooks.Add

XLDoc.Sheets(1).name = "Supervisor Report"

set XLSheet = XLDoc.Worksheets(1)

set MyTable = ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("CH02")

set XLSheet = XLDoc.Worksheets(1)

MyTable.CopyTableToClipboard true

XLSheet.Paste XLSheet.Range("A1")

XLDoc.SaveAs "C:\Users\igal\Documents\BU\MyRep.xlsx"    'Choose the file path you like

XLApp.Visible = False

XLApp.Quit

Set XLApp = Nothing

Set Table = Nothing

end sub

End then go to->Settings->Document Properties->Triggers->Field Event Trigger

See the attached.

Hope it help.

Thank you very much Yigal for quick response.I am not a macro person.The macro works good.But it is every time asking me whether to replace the old excel file or not? I want to add the data to the existing excel if  another selection is made.And it also generates two sheets.One the object i needed and the other the selection table.I want only the object.Actually I am making a selection in one object and trying to export the data from another object based on the selection.I have read some where in community little bit similar to my question

Can we use AppendExport also to do similar thing with the data exported to the same excel sheet whenever the field selected?
