Description:<br />
Patch ID: 36460827<br />
When a report is exported to Microsoft Excel Data Only format, the columns are not aligned properly if the report only contains group<br />
headers and footers (that is, the Details section is suppressed).<br />
New Behavior:<br />
To solve the problem, new registry keys can be used to determine the size of columns when exported. See the Limitations section here<br />
for details.<br />
Known Limitations:<br />
Set the following key to determine which section of the report to base the column widths of the export:<br />
[HKEY_CURR<strong>EN</strong>T_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\9.0\Crystal Reports\Export\Crxf_xls\ColumnWidthBaseArea]. The<br />
following values are available:<br />
1 = Report Header<br />
2 = Page Header<br />
3 = Group Header<br />
4 = Details Section<br />
5 = Group Footer<br />
7 = Page Footer<br />
8 = Report Footer<br />
255 = Whole Report (Default)<br />
[HKEY_CURR<strong>EN</strong>T_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\9.0\Crystal Reports\Export\Crxf_xls\ColumnWidthGroupNumber]<br />
This key is read when the column widths are based on a group section (ColumnWidthBaseArea = 3 or 5). This value determines<br />
which group section to use.<br />
[HKEY_CURR<strong>EN</strong>T_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\9.0\Crystal Reports\Export\Crxf_xls\UseConstantColumnWidth]<br />
This subkey determines the option to use Constant Column Widths in the export. That is, each column in the Microsoft Excel<br />
spreadsheet is the same width.<br />
[HKEY_CURR<strong>EN</strong>T_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\9.0\Crystal Reports\Export\Crxf_xls\ConstantColumnWidth]<br />
This subkey sets the width of the columns in the export. This key is ignored if UseConstantColumnWidth is False. Acceptable values<br />
are in twips (1440 twips = 1 inch).<br />
The option Maintain Column Alignment requires a choice to be made on which section of the report to base the column size.<br />
Several additional registry subkeys are created to allow Crystal Enterprise to configure Microsoft Excel Data Only exports through a<br />
viewer. These registry subkeys are located in HKEY_CURR<strong>EN</strong>T_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\9.0\Crystal<br />
Reports\Export\Crxf_xls\. They are also located in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE tree for use with Crystal Enterprise. The key<br />
names are: ColumnWidthGroupNumber, ColumnWidthBaseArea, UseConstantColumnWidth, and ConstantColumnWidth. Note that<br />
a constant column width cannot be used once the option Maintain Column Alignment is set.<br />
