I have exported a report created in Crystal 7 to Excel. The format I used was 5.0 (Extended). When I print the spreadsheet, the report appears in the top left hand corner and it is only 2 inches by 2 inches. If I copy the export into a new spreadsheet and print it again, it tuns out fine.
Does anyone know what would be causing this to occur? Thank you in advance.
 
Quite honestly, CR doesn't export correctly to Excel 95% of the time. Nor does it typically look nice in any of the other formats that they offer export formats for. Crysal doesn't support thier format options in anything other than Crystal Reports. The excel export options only work if you mess with them forever. That usually results in the reports looking awful on screen Cryastal Reports format and okay in Excel format. It's a touch and go issue. Some have had slightly better luck with exporting RTF format. I haven't been so lucky. Good Luck though. You're certainly not alone.
