Dear Bill,
                Do you have the same problem if you do a GATEWAY EXPORT instead 
of PRINT?  Do you get a blank column if you use a CSV file instead of an Excel 
file?  Is  the terminal character in column 5 something that R:BASE in 
interpreting as a delimiter and making an extra column (is the last character 
being dropped from column 5)?
                                                                                
Jason

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Printing a Report to XLS File

I have a report which prints to an XLS file.

Everything comes through to the XLS file with one exception;

The report can have between 7 and 11 columns depending on the data.

When the XLS file opens there is a blank column inserted between columns 5 and 
6. Now I know I could just delete the column on edit, but I would rather see 
that inserted column gone with all columns being contiguous.

Here is my code to print to an XLS file;

print SalesGrid10 +
OPTION XLS +
|FILENAME .vFile +
|SHOW_CANCEL_DIALOG OFF +
|ALL_TEXT_IN_GENERAL_FORMAT OFF +
|CELL_ATTR ON +
|INCLUDE_IMAGES OFF +
|INCLUDE_LINES OFF +
|INCLUDE_RICH_TEXT ON +
|RICHTEXT_ENCODING_TYPE IMAGE +
|INCLUDE_SHAPES OFF +
|LINE_SPACE 0 +
|ONE_SHEET_PER_PAGE ON +
|OPEN ON

Any suggestions ? Thanks.

Bill Eyring
