 Hi guys,

 

I am new VA user and I have some basic question related to exporting the whole report into an excel of pdf file.

 

In my report I have drop-down list, listing table and multidimentional table. I know that I can export listing table or multidimentional table into excel file separately, but I would like to export both listing and multidimentional table into one single excel or pdf file (something like "export entire page to excel/pdf file"). Is it possible in SAS VA?

 

 Thanks in advance!
 Filip

You can get a PDF by printing or by distributing the report. You cannot export an entire report in Excel format.

 Hi @Madelyn_SAS ,

 

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately currently option for distributing report is unavailable in my VA (I will check the permissions and so on), but I am a little bit confused about printing to PDF.

In my report I have quite wide table, and when I print it to PDF I have something like screen shot of current view, and not the entire table. Is it normal behaviour?

 

Thanks,

 Filip

 Hi again,

 

Unfortunately I still didn't find a way how can I export the whole report into a pdf file (not a "screen shot", but with entire wide table) - any ideas? 🙂

 

 Thanks in advance!

Hi @filippo_kow,

for a first impression on how Visual Analytics and Excel work together, I recommend:
