Hi guys,

I created a report with output format as EXL2K.

If i print excel sheet it is going into 2 pages horizontally.How to fit entire sheet in one page horizontal.

i.e All the columns should come in single page.

Can you provide step by step procedure to achieve this.It would be great help to me.

Thanks,
Rakesh

Macros, or VBA, is MS Excel code and not WebFOCUS.

If you need macros then you need to venture to templates. If that is not an option then you're snookered.

If you are using format EXL2K, then this technique may be of use.

-SET &ECHO=ALL;

SET COMPOUND = OPEN NOBREAK

DEFINE FILE CAR

Page_Number/A70 = '<style><!--@page {mso-footer-data:"&|CPage &|P of &|N";}--></style>' ;
END
