Exporting to an application

If you export to an application, the program exports the report to a Temp file in the specified format, and then opens the file in the appropriate application.

Note:    

• When exporting in ODBC format, "Application" and "Disk file" are the same.
• You will need to specify a file path if you are exporting in HTML format.
• The file name of the report and the file name of the Temp file cannot be the same.

The sections below provide instructions on how to export a report to the Microsoft Excel 7.0 Extended format for each of the different destination types.
