Export to Excel

It sort of depends on what you mean by "line by itself".  Which of the following are you trying to achieve?


12345


Desc1 Text
Desc 2 Text
Desc 3 text

1234.33





12345

Desc 1 Text

1234.33

<--line 1


Desc 2 Text

<--line 2


Desc 3 Text

<--line 3




(For the sake of clarity, the first option would use fields A1, B1 and C1 only; the second would use A1..C3).



If you want the former (which I think you do), I *believe* (but from a rapidly fading memory), you do an ASCII export something like:



Crlf=chr("13")&chr("10")

exp(1)="12345";exp(2)="Desc 1 Text"{crlf{"Desc 2 Text"{crlf{"Desc 3 Text";exp(3)="1234.44";write exp



If the latter, you can just do a standard export where you do:



                exp(1)="12345";exp(2)="Desc 1 Text";exp(3)="12334.33";write exp

                exp(1)="";exp(2)="Desc 1 Text";exp(3)="";write exp

                exp(1)="";exp(2)="Desc 1 Text";exp(3)="";write exp
