Hi,
I am a new Crystal Reports user. I need to generate a report and export the the report so that the fields are fixed length, ie, the length of each field matches its length in the database view it is being pulled from. The resulting text file will be used as a data source file for an upload program, which is why the fields need to be fixed length, with no delimiters. The columns of fields should line up (so, they can be padded with space), and not wrap, if possible. I'm not sure which export type to choose. I've been able to export the fields as tab-delimited without wrapping, but so far, not as fixed-length fields with no wrapping. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks.
