Transfer Report to Txt File

[SteveM]

Hi,

I have a simple report which i would like to tranfer to a file called report.txt This is not a problem using the transfertext method.

My only problem is that the file produced includes numerous random blank lines.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Steve

If you want to export a report as a text file formatting will always be an issue.

I think that text files are best suited exporting tables or queries in fixed width or delimited formats so they can be reused as a data sources or something. (Usually not much fun to read.)

Have you tried exporting it as rich text format? This usually preserves the reports format fairly well. Other wise simply export the query from your report.
